Über die Familie


Trithemius, a 15th century Abbott, and influential counselor to Emperor Maximilian I, was also an author who wrote both histories and the first printed work on cryptography which gained him much adverse notoriety. He has been long regarded as a mystic and some of his works were therefore banned. However, it may have been his intention to cloak his cryptology essays in mystical writing to keep people from easily grasping the subject matter, which it has been recently demonstrated, at heart was really cryptological methodology. This font is based on a printed version of the Polygraphiae -- a text that included many methods of encryption. The examplar for this font in that text was described as anothor method of Alchemists recording secrets.

Über Proportional Lime

Proportional Lime Type Foundry is a second floor operation that is overrun with a bird, cats, and unpleasant levels of heat, some of which is generated by the obsolescent machinery, and the rest enforced by the laws of thermodynamics. The bird owns the cats. And the cats own the humans. However, even considering the aggressive nature of the bird's endless commentary, and the cat's intermittent proofreading sessions, work is still routinely accomplished, and the goal of creating historically influenced typefaces achieved. We at PLTF desire to create typefaces that accurately recreate the feel of the old printing technologies for use in the modern world and also to explore novel designs.
