Description

Hi there,

I wonder how many stylesets does public sans have? In figma, it looks like there's an alternate character style of “g” by usingfont-feature-settings: 'ss02' on, 'ss06' on, 'salt' on, 'ss01' on;, but it's not working on chrome.

Could you help to make it more clear for me?

Thanks a lot.

Research direction
The issue asks how many stylistic sets Public Sans has and why font feature settings for ss01, ss02, ss06, and salt do not work in Chrome. The maintainer should clarify the available stylistic sets and provide documentation or a code example. The issue references a Figma screenshot showing alternate 'g' glyphs. No linked PR or assignee; likely needs maintainer response to clarify and update docs if needed.
