Hello @DianaStanciulescu & @Katie-A-IBM

@Lingaraj-13 started a figma file to mock up updates on this page: https://www.figma.com/design/A8Aqo87GXAFPJ7gbIvJYkL/%5BIDL%5D-Typeface?node-id=1-12659&t=mQ8B8cBdeJGr9sjd-1

@mjabbink would this label be correct? I think they all start with the plex type (sans, mono..), then the alphabet.

I am guessing we remove this section:

Text for the above “IBM Plex Math” section

IBM Plex® Math includes over 5,000 new glyphs, covering a wide range of mathematical symbols, such as alphanumeric, double-struck, Mono Fraktur, operators and script, as well as icons, arrows, Greek letters, phonetics, and technical and geometric shapes. It’s one of the most complete math fonts available today. Its compatibility with IBM Plex® Serif Regular makes it an ideal choice for IBM researchers and mathematicians. Note: Plex Math must used with LaTeX software or an equivalent to format or typeset math equations in text documents.

Someone may need to double-check if my last line is correct in technical terminology.

New text for Awards

Awards

Recently, IBM Plex Sans and Mono were acquired into the permanent collection of the Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum in New York. IBM Plex has gained recognition in the international type design community and has won various international competitions. Plex received its first international recognition in the Type Directors Club Competition, TDC 64 2018, where it won the Judge’s Choice for Typographic Excellence. In 2020, IBM Plex Sans Arabic was honored with a Pencil Award in the Type Design category at the prestigious D&AD Awards. Plex has also been granted several international patents.

Links in text are included in the Figma file

I asked Owen from Visual Labs, Kevin, an architect. I will report back
