P22 Brass Script is a brand-new font style from an old source. This script font was found in a booklet from Dornemann & & Co. of Magdeburg Germany, circa 1910. The book was titled "" Messingschriften fur Handvergoldung"", which approximately translates to "" Brass types for hand foil marking"". The mini catalog called this type just "" Script"".
It has not been previously digitized or seen in basic metal type kind. The antique specimen book featured the majority of the characters needed for a full alphabet, but a number of letters were disappointed. Given that no other examples of this style might be found, P22 got the assistance of master calligrapher Michael Clark to draw the missing characters in the exact same style as the initial. The design is extremely loosely based on the secretarial hands and reminiscent of "" French Hand"" with a really early 20th century, pre-modern feel. It has an uncommon circulation that is neither too casual nor too formal. The font style would work for wedding event invites or product packaging and advertising.
P22 Brass Script Pro functions include: automated ligatures for common pairs such as ll, tt, qu and a variety of f ligatures, full CE language support including Turkish and Romanian and a range of swash underscores for various length words that can be included manually in OpenType prepared applications with the glyph combination or with the contextual alternates. The length of the word will immediately select the finest length of swash for the work.
