Generate Charts with FF Chartwell

Some may have wondered how those pie charts in our ticket lottery are generated. Well, the secret behind this is the brand new FF Chartwell by Travis Kochel.

FF Chartwell is a typeface which makes use of OpenType ligatures to create graphs: Pies, Lines and Bars in different shapes. A series of numbers transform into charts as you type. Simply type the numbers as a sum: 17+22+43+18 for example. With ligatures turned off you can check and type your numbers (a basic set of numbers and letters is contained). When turning the ligatures on – your numbers transform into charts.
