1540 Mercator Script was published by GLC. 1540 Mercator Script includes 1 design. p > This font was motivated by the so-called Litterarum latinarum, quas italicas, cursoriasque vocant, scribendum Ratio (Louvain 1540), a manual planned for calligraphers by the well known researcher Gerhard Mercator.

It was a spectacular "Cancellaresca corsiva" design, enriched with lots of alternates, last loops and ligatures.

We have added a great deal of accented and other characters required for modern usage that did not exist in the initial.
