New Font for TeX

Question

Inspired by Greta Thunberg's handwriting, a new font named "GretaGrotesk" has just been published. When will it be available for TeX/LaTeX?

You can use any OTF font you want, with XeTeX / LuaTeX. There's a question about this on this site somewhere... — ShreevatsaR, Oct 30 '19 at 20:55

You should mention that this document should be compiled with either XeTeX or LuaTeX, i.e. the command xelatex or lualatex. – ShreevatsaR Oct 30 '19 at 21:03

You'll get a usefull error message when compiling with pdflatex – user187802 Oct 30 '19 at 21:04

@user187802 Ha! If people read error messages, this forum would be almost empty. – Henri Menke Oct 30 '19 at 22:00

I also think that letting users find out the hard way that it does not work is an approach that not everyone may like. – Oct 30 '19 at 22:06
