- Hey gang, this is Deke McClelland.…Welcome to Deke's Techniques.…Now this week, we're going to take a look…at some newish font technology…that you might not know about.…Specifically this guy right here,…Trajan Color Concept.…This is Adobe's first full color font.…It came out in November of 2016,…so about a year and a half ago,…and it's part of the OpenType-SVG standard.…Now the original Trajan was designed…by Carol Twombly and Richard Slimbach,…some very old names, very young people,…but very old names at Adobe.…
