The Fell Types

Postby The Texas Dude » Fri Jul 18, 2008 7:10 am

Igino Marini has republished OpenType versions of his awesome Fell Types. For anyone who hasn't heard of these, they're old-English style fonts that were converted from extremely antique lead type. They have a really lovely, worn 16th-century look and are expertly kerned using Marini's own ingenious optical kerning technique.

Grab them for free at http://www.iginomarini.com/fell.html (download is at the bottom of the page). (~1.5mb)

These are updates to the 2004 version with many more characters and improved kerning.

Worthy (read "Mandatory") additions to any font collection!
