Random Historical Pen…

Bold and adventurous but with a hint of culture, Lamar Pen™ reflects the personality of the man whose handwriting inspired it. Mirabeau B. Lamar was a poet, orator, traveler, military man, and a celebrated Texan of the 1830s and ’40s. Unlike Sam Houston, alas, he was not a friend of Texas’s Native American tribes—but there’s no denying he had fine cursive script. Among our most popular old pen fonts. Try it out here »

Random Book Text…

Geographica™ is a legible serif text-type family modeled after the hand-drawn place names and peripheral narratives on the mid-1700s New World maps of English engraver Thomas Jefferys. Geographica comes with Roman, Italic, Bold, and Bold Italic styles, true small capitals, scores of ligatures, two stylistic alternate titling caps—and has a slew of cartographic ornaments, to boot. Try it out here »

Random Old Map Font…

Terra Ignota™ is an interpretation of the hand-lettered legends and titles of Amerique Septentrionale, a 1650 map by French cartographer Nicolas Sanson. Our oldest handwritten font, it seems evocative of pirates or weathered adventurers of the day. This full-featured OpenType font appears in our Old Map Fonts, Age of Discovery, and Handwritten History bundles. Try it out here »

Random Display Face…

The inspiration for Lars Bergquist’s Corsiva Italica™ is the classical cancellaresca corsiva of the 1500s (known in England at the time as “the Italian hand”)—e.g., the work of Italian calligrapher Giambattista Palatino. A specialty font perfect for lending designs a fine, historical, hand-lettered look—or even things like scripture, framed poetry, or Christmas cards. Try it out here »

Random Modern Handwritten Font…

Fat and sassy Oak Street™ simulates printing from a felt-tip marker. A heavyweight attention-grabber, this font is nevertheless neat and readable. Might work well for signs, headlines, display text, packaging—even menus. Oak Street’s nearly 800 characters include ligatures, small capitals, and full Latin support. One of six faces in our Modern Handwritten Fonts Collection. Try it out here »

Random Antique Text Font…

A personal favorite among the text fonts I’ve designed, Bonsai™ is, well, top-heavy. But it’s this very top-heaviness—as if printed with worn or off-center lead type— that gives it a peculiar allure. It’s soft, warm, friendly, legible, accessible. Its roman and true italic styles have plenty of OpenType features, true small capitals, and Latin Plus support. (Note its use in the heads on this website!) Try it out here »

Random Offbeat Font…

Chromosome™ pretty much exactly replicates the look you get on 1960’s-era labelmaker labels. The font has four styles: Light, Heavy, Reversed Light, and Reversed Heavy. (The latter two knock the text out of whatever color label you specify.) It’s got only uppercase characters, but it does offer support for Central and Eastern European languages.
