{"title":"Gradl Zierschriften","description":"Here is another design by jewelry designer \u003ca href=\"\/person\/m_j_gradl\/\"\u003eMax Joseph Gradl\u003c\/a\u003e.\r\n\r\nZier is a verb, meaning to decorate, adorn or ornament; zierlich means decorative, elegant, fine, neat. Schrift means type. Zierschrift, therefore, means decorative type. \u003cb\u003eGradl Zierschriften\u003c\/b\u003e is a decorative type in the Art Nouveau style, rather than the more ornate Victorian style. Very modern, very young, with an elegant simplicity of form.\r\n\r\nMaria Makela, in her book \u003ci\u003eThe Munich Secession\u003c\/i\u003e (Princeton 1990) suggests that the frequent use of simple, flowing, organic forms that was so characteristic of \u003cb\u003eArt Nouveau\u003c\/b\u003e was a reaction against the growing complexity and rapid urbanization that resulted from 19th century industrialization.\r\n\r\nIn keeping with that reaction is the hand-drawn quality that intentionally rejects a mechanistic mathematic precision of line rendering. \u003cb\u003eGradl Zierschriften\u003c\/b\u003e preserves that hand-drawn quality. Designed with upper case only, this face was obviously intended for short headlines only and is best set at 18 points or larger. However, I don't think you really get to experience the grace of this design until you get to 36 points or more. In the larger sizes, it is simply stunning.\r\n\r\nPlease note that while most of the uppercase letterforms are repeated in the lower case for convenience, the ‘F’,‘L’ and ‘T’ are rendered a little narrower than in the uppercase to provide for visual variety.\r\n\r\nThe font also includes a generous supply of ligatures for just the right fit ... and just for the fun of using them. Three common ways of inserting a ligature, accented letter or other special character are:\r\n\r\n1) Key in “ALT”+“0”+[ascii #]; for example ALT+0233 for the e-acute,\r\n\r\n2) From within your application program, go to the INSERT menu and look for something like “Insert Symbol,” (this function is NOT available in all application programs) \u0026amp;\r\n\r\n3) Cut \u0026amp; Paste from the CHARACTER MAP display that has been supplied by every generation of Windows Operating System that I can recall (All Programs\u0026gt;Accessories\u0026gt;System Tools).\r\n\r\nIsn't it amazing what you can do? Don't be afraid to experiment. If you back up your work, you have very little to lose and a lot to gain. Not only do you acquire a new tool, but by the very process you have learned how to continually expand your knowledge and skill base.","products":[{"product_id":"gradl-zierschriften-gradl-zierschriften-311121","title":"Gradl Zierschriften","description":"","brand":"HiH","offers":[{"title":"Desktop \/ 1 user","offer_id":43957260910762,"sku":"311121_2275_1","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Desktop \/ 2 users","offer_id":43957261172906,"sku":"311121_2275_2","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Desktop \/ 3 users","offer_id":43957261402282,"sku":"311121_2275_3","price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Desktop \/ 4 users","offer_id":43957261664426,"sku":"311121_2275_4","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Desktop \/ 5 users","offer_id":43957261926570,"sku":"311121_2275_5","price":36.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Desktop \/ 6 users","offer_id":43957262188714,"sku":"311121_2275_6","price":42.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Desktop \/ 7 users","offer_id":43957262483626,"sku":"311121_2275_7","price":47.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Desktop \/ 8 users","offer_id":43957262745770,"sku":"311121_2275_8","price":52.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Desktop \/ 9 users","offer_id":43957263007914,"sku":"311121_2275_9","price":56.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Desktop \/ 10 users","offer_id":43957263270058,"sku":"311121_2275_10","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Desktop \/ 20 users","offer_id":43957263532202,"sku":"311121_2275_20","price":115.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Desktop \/ 30 users","offer_id":43957263794346,"sku":"311121_2275_30","price":165.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Desktop \/ 40 users","offer_id":43957263958186,"sku":"311121_2275_40","price":210.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Desktop \/ 50 users","offer_id":43957264187562,"sku":"311121_2275_50","price":250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Desktop \/ 75 users","offer_id":43957264482474,"sku":"311121_2275_75","price":356.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Desktop \/ 100 users","offer_id":43957264711850,"sku":"311121_2275_100","price":450.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Desktop \/ 125 users","offer_id":43957264908458,"sku":"311121_2275_125","price":531.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Desktop \/ 150 users","offer_id":43957265072298,"sku":"311121_2275_150","price":600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Desktop \/ 175 users","offer_id":43957265268906,"sku":"311121_2275_175","price":656.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Desktop \/ 200 users","offer_id":43957265465514,"sku":"311121_2275_200","price":700.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Webfonts \/ 10,000 pageviews per month","offer_id":42233843384490,"sku":"311121_2267_10000","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Webfonts \/ 25,000 pageviews per month","offer_id":43957265596586,"sku":"311121_2267_25000","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Webfonts \/ 100,000 pageviews per month","offer_id":42233843450026,"sku":"311121_2267_100000","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Webfonts \/ 250,000 pageviews per month","offer_id":43957265662122,"sku":"311121_2267_250000","price":100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Webfonts \/ 500,000 pageviews per month","offer_id":43957265793194,"sku":"311121_2267_500000","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Webfonts \/ 1,000,000 pageviews per month","offer_id":42233843515562,"sku":"311121_2267_1000000","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Webfonts \/ 1,500,000 pageviews per month","offer_id":43957265924266,"sku":"311121_2267_1500000","price":250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Webfonts \/ 2,000,000 pageviews per month","offer_id":43957266022570,"sku":"311121_2267_2000000","price":300.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}]}],"url":"https:\/\/www.myfonts.com\/collections\/gradl-zierschriften-font-hih.oembed","provider":"MyFonts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
