This paper describes the end-to-end process to design, produce, package, and verify a custom typeface named “jcheada,” with emphasis on deploying it at 60px (font-size:60px) in web contexts and providing a reproducible “verified” release. It covers font creation, file formats (OTF/TTF/WOFF2), hinting and kerning, packaging and metadata, licensing, web embedding strategies, performance optimizations, integrity verification (checksums, signatures, and code signing), example HTML/CSS usage, distribution workflows, CI/CD verification, and security considerations.
