Hi Duncan, Is that 10KB of images really that ugly / big problem that we need to replace them with 14MB ttf font? I don't think so. % Options? % - We look into generating a font with the symbols we need? Even when the font will include only necessary characters will it be smaller than current images? % - We keep using images but may be improve them? If it's just about good-looking labels I'd vote for new images based on font which looks nice with the rest of the page. % - ???
