  • Cormorant

    Cormorant open-source display font family

  • Have you looked at Cormorant? It's a huge Garamond-based font family (9 styles × 5 weights) and it's open source. The second stem of the italic /h turns outward, which sounds like what you're looking for (the second stem of an italic /h often turns inward, making it look similar to a /b).

  • et-book

    A webfont of the typeface used in Edward Tufte’s books.

  • This is really late, but I've got one. ET Book is a based on Bembo, which has a more modern italic h. It says it's a webfont, but the Github download link includes ttf files, although it would be easy to convert a webfont anyway.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
