Biography
Gilles Le Corre, painter since the end of 70s, born in 1950 in Nantes, France, is also engraver and calligrapher. He has been learning about medieval art and old books for as long as he can remember. Since a few years, the computer began for him a writing tool like the quill pen and ink. Better : it may help to print books just looking like ancient ones !...
In a very serious way of demand, he, beginning in 2007, trys to create the most exact and extend choice as possible in european historic typography, mainly from medieval and early time of printing – his preferate period – from 1456 with Gutenberg, up to 1913, with a font inspired by a real old typewriter.
All fonts are documented after an historic search, finding printers, engravers when known, cities and countries, and choosen for their representative time style. Often, they are “eroded”, it is an aesthetic choice because old printed texts have this rough and imperfect appearance.
The punctuation signs (mainly , ; . : - / | ()'«?!... when existing) of the periods are always respected as they are in documents. Every font is completed with arabic numbers, accented characters and others (W and K, in french medieval books or latin texts, for exemple) when lacking, and many other no longer existant in original, beside the typical ligatures, abreviated letters, finals or initials characters, like “s” final and “long s” initial or median, and more... All described in a render sheet attached with each font file.
