Texas Heroes Fonts Set font


Random Discounted Bundle…

Our Texas Heroes Fonts Set™ bundles together five fonts modeled after the handwriting of notable residents of Texas back in the days of the Republic—each with its own distinctive style.

Choose this collection to license a subset of perhaps the choicest fonts from our Historical Pen Fonts Collection™ at a savings of 50%. View Details »


Botanical Scribe font


Random Historical Pen…

Botanical Scribe™ was inspired by the fine, hand-inscribed legends on the early-19th-century floral etchings of Belgian painter Pierre-Joseph Redouté. Because of its slight organic imperfections, it has a warm, accessible feel while remaining elegant enough for formal invitations and the like. Try it out here »


New Millennium Sans font


Random Book Text…

New Millennium Sans is one of a group three typefaces that share a common name and design philosophy. This sans-serif member is described by its designer as “a humanist sans in the Optima vein.’ Its letterforms are geometric wonders—fine, slim regular styles and clear, definitive bolds. (The other member of this group are New Millennium and New Millennium Linear.) Try it out here »


Geographica Hand font


Random Old Map Font…

Geographica Hand is a replication of the hand-lettered titles on British map engravings of the 18th century. The font is as legible and versatile as Geographica Roman but more genuinely evocative of the source materials. Its 900 glyphs are feature-rich and include several sketchy cartographic illustrations—trees, churches, windmills, and the like. Geographica Hand is a member our Old Map Fonts CollectionTry it out here »


Midnight font


Random Display Face…

Midnight is an ornamental typeface with a simple raison d’être: to simulate the look of the lettering on neon signs. Naturally, its two styles—Light and Bright—work best when knocked out of a dark background, but the font’s look is such that its usefulness is not limited to illustrations of a downtoan city street at night. An ideal addition to any designer’s display-font toolbox. Try it out here »


Professor font


Random Modern Handwritten Font…

Professor replicates the cursive script of an actual college professor (the designer’s late-father), who had the kind of plain modern hand schoolkids used to see on a blackboard. Replete with contextual ligatures, this font was designed to fool casual readers into thinking they’re scanning real handwriting. Has nearly 600 glyphs and full Latin support. A member of our Modern Handwritten Fonts CollectionTry it out here »


Attic Antique font


Random Antique Text Font…

Akin to the Century faces, Attic Antique™ has the look of a weathered old serif from a century-old textbook. It’s surprisingly legible at any size, from 12-point text blocks to enormous billboard copy. Comes with roman and italic styles and plenty of OpenType-features, including true small caps, discretionary ligatures, and full Latin support—nearly 900 characters in all. A popular display face since 1993. Try it out here »


Speed Bump font


Random Offbeat Font…

Speed Bump does have upper- and lowercase Latin alphabets, but its chief appeal might be its vast array of wacky pictures (accessible via OpenType features or a character map utility). Need an apple, book, car, duck, eagle, or fish? They’re all there—plus a couple hundred more. Speed Bump has more than 500 glyphs and full Latin support. A member of our Offbeat Grab Bag bundle. Try it out here »
