German designer Andreas Karl created the fonts and in 1997. Both fonts are included in the Take Type Library, chosen from the contestants of Linotype's International Digital Type Design Contests of 1994 and 1997.
The wavy contours of Linotype Fluxus give the font a restless, choppy feel. Its relatively strong strokes make Linotype Fluxus particularly good for headlines.
Linotype Mailbox has an entire alphabet, only lower case letters, with the look of @ -- who doesn't think of the Internet? If you want to give your headlines or short texts an unmistakable feel of the Internet, you could not do better than Linotype MailBox.
