Blooming Elegant Font Trio FAQs...
Blooming Elegant Trio - How do I access the extra characters on a Mac?
Blooming Elegant is an extended opentype font and therefore requires software or an App that is capable of supporting extended opentype features, such as Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop.Note: Canva and Procreate do not at this time support extended opentype and normally require an ALT file or similar alternate way of adding the extra characters to your design.
Blooming Elegant unfortunately does not have an ALT file and keymap, so you will have to manually access these characters through Fontbook (Character map in Microsoft Windows).
Open Fontbook (hit CMD+Space and search for Fontbook). Search for your installed Blooming Elegant Regular and then select the "waterfall" view (button with 4 blocks in a square). The regular view does not show all the extra characters.
Find the character you are looking for and highlight it and then click the "Edit->Copy" menu item or press the keyboard shortcut "cmd+c" to copy the letter. You can then paste it into your app by clicking "Edit->Paste" in the menu or pressing the keyboard shortcut "cmd+v".
Thats it. You will need to do it for as many of the Extra letters or swashes you need in your design.
Blooming Elegant Trio - How do I access the Alternates?
You will require software that can access Alternates and Ligatures such as Photoshop or Illustrator.The alternates are accessible by turning on 'Stylistic Alternates' and 'Ligatures' buttons on in Photoshop's Character panel, or via any software with a glyphs panel, e.g. Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop CC, Inkscape.
