What You Can Type With Canela Bark

With complete upper and lowercase letters and all ten digits, Canela Bark is ready for real wording, not just a single headline. Everyday marks like &, ! and ? are there too. Thanks to its accented letters, it also works for Spanish, French, Portuguese and Italian, not just English. Of its 495 glyphs, about 179 are not on your keyboard at all. That is where the alternates explained below live.

How to Use the Alternate Letters in Canela Bark

Canela Bark has swashes and stylistic alternates built in as OpenType features. In Illustrator and InDesign, open the Glyphs panel (Window > Type) and select a letter to see its alternates. In Photoshop, use Window > Glyphs. Figma shows them under the text settings as OpenType features. Canva and Cricut Design Space can't reach OpenType alternates, so for those, set the word in a desktop app first and import it as an SVG. Its ligatures switch on by themselves in most design apps: certain letter pairs join into one specially drawn shape.

Where Canela Bark Works Best

Think of Canela Bark for posters, logos and eye-catching headlines. Use it for one standout word or headline and let simpler fonts handle the rest.
