 # What it is
 A classy font.
 
+## Changes in dtinth’s fork
+1. All glyphs have been adjusted to have exactly the same width (using code based on [monospacifier](https://github.com/cpitclaudel/monospacifier))
+2. The glyph metrics have been adjusted to make it display better alongside system font.
+3. The name is changed to `Comic Shanns dtinth`.
+
 ## Usage
 You can download it and install it like any other font.
