1532_Bastarde_Lyon

Font designed from work by an anonymous printer in Lyon (France) to print the French popular novel Les Grandes et inestimables Chroniques du grand et enorme geant Gargantua [...] in 1532.

The original font has a relatively small number of characters. This font include a “long s”, as typicaly medieval, but also a few ligatures . A render sheet, enclosed with files help to identify them and accented or special others characters on keyboard.

It can be used as web-site titles, posters and fliers, editing ancient texts, menus or greeting cards as a very decorative font...

Although this font remains clear and easy to read from 8 or 9 points on screen, it is clearly designed for print works.

This article refers to: 1532 Bastarde Lyon.
