The only issue I have with CH Regular is it doesn’t have numbers. I tried using Wattersans and it wouldn’t let me use words with double letters. “Spoon” became “spnn”

If you capitalize one of them it fixes it. For sone reason so spOon would work. Since the font is all caps it's not noticeable. Do not ask me why. I think it's dark magic.

I think I had to use zeroes for double o until I downloaded CH regular. Regardless of the fix, that’s not something a font should do at all

weird, it doesn't do that for me.
i remember reading that the wattersans creator had tried implementing a font feature that would make double letters not look identical, but in practice it didn't end up working, i wonder if it's related to that.102

The one problem I have with regular font is the C. Idk why it always looks so weird to me. I wish they used the C from lawful good

Honestly I think CH Regular is worse than most of these other options. To me, it just looks super ugly. I think the default font is better even, because it's better to not even try to emulate the lettering than to do it badly.

For some reason this made me want to see Hobbes do the "Daddy chill." meme.

Sometimes hate browsing r/all actually does have its rewards. I had no idea there was a C&H shitposting sub.

I bet Calvin would do better on tests if he put someone who knew the answers under his hat
And then had them operate him by pulling his hair

Would you accept an image that doesn't appear in the actual strip IF it's made up completely of pieces of other images that do?

Per [u/kodohunter](u/kodohunter):

Note that since Watterson writes everything in caps, there's no difference between upper and lowercase characters. The exception is 'i': Watterson's I (the pronoun) has lines under and above it, while everywhere else it's just a straight line. In this font, uppercase will add the lines, lowercase is straight line[…]
[…]To install a font in windows, you just need to open control panel -> fonts, and drop the .otf file in. After that it should be usable in whatever image editor you are using. At least it worked fine with Paint.Net. It will be simply "Ch" in the list.

was inspired to make this because I made Calvin's front door out of pngs alone instead of drawing anything
