Loch Garman™A font family tree displays different foundries’ versions, or a foundry’s different cuts, of basically the same typeface design.
Loch GarmanSome words from Evertype: Loch Garman is based on Baoithín, designed by Viktor Hammer and Colm Ó Lochlainn; Baoithín was based on Hammerschrift, which was related to Hammer’s American Uncial -- though Loch Garman is more authentic Gaelic font than American Uncial. The Macintosh versions of these fonts are encoded according to the Mac Gaelic Roman character set, which has been the standard character set for Gaelic fonts on the Mac since 1993, when the Irish localization of Mac System 6.0.8 and 7.1 were released. The PC versions of these fonts are encoded according to ISO/IEC 8859-14 (Celtic), with some standard Windows extensions between x80-x9F. These fonts, unlike many Celtic fonts, are suitable for writing, and for text interchange between, the Irish and Welsh languages (Breton, Cornish, Manx, and Scottish Gaelic are served by ordinary Mac and PC character sets). |
