Alex Taylor has updated his Workplace Sans TrueType font to Version 0.5.

"Please read the note below before installing.

Workplace Sans is a light condensed sans-serif TrueType font with Unicode 
encoding.

This font has been carefully designed to resemble, as much as possible, the 
OS/2 bitmap font "WarpSans".  This resemblance is at its best when 
displayed on-screen at 9 point/120 dpi, or 11 point/96 dpi.


NOTE:
With version 0.5, I have embarked on a fairly extensive re-tooling of 
Workplace Sans.  Most of the glyphs are a lot cleaner and more regular in 
appearance now (although still not perfect).

I decided to recreate the font file from scratch, and add each glyph as I 
redesigned it.  Version 0.5 represents the first milestone in this effort.

Version 0.5 of Workplace Sans does NOT support all of the characters that 
were included in the previous versions.  At present, only the Latin-1 
character set (basically, OS/2 codepages 850 and 819) are supported."
