Madame

The letterforms of the Madame font are quite complex. Older operating systems like Windows 3.1 have trouble with rendering such complex TrueType characters. To avoid this, the Madame font has been designed in a special way: the characters are composed of separate fragments. If you use this font, normal text appears “gibbled”. To determine what character parts are required for proper text composition, please click on the character map links next to each font.

Madame

Some words from Linotype:

The font, Madame, first appeared in a sample with similar fonts, presented by the Fonderie Typographique Française in the 19th century. The font consists of three cuts, letters, accents and numericals. The flamboyant Madame is meant for titles and headlines, emphasis in text or as initials. It combines well with both serif and sans serif fonts, but should be used sparsely to maximize the advantages of its ornate forms.
