 hi David, I did have the entire alphabet once, as Tiff images. I'll try to get in touch with the designer, who found them somewhere and had them copied/scanned.
I'll let you know if I get hold of her.
Compliments, great job you did!
I used to create fonts from scans, using Fontographer on Mac - I'm talking of a million years ago. Around the same time when I was working on that book!
Yes, Internet makes the world very small.

Well, these 'boring plain' fonts are copyrighted work by professional designers. To design a font properly with hinting and kerning for the different point sizes, so that it gives a professional result when printed, is a very (read VERY) time consuming job. You are talking hundreds if not thousands of hours. Like most people who do a professional job they like to get paid for their work.
The contrary is generally spoken true for the 'flashy Innovative' fonts. Made by amateurs, incomplete, no kerning pairs whatsoever and often based on other people's work, - took me less than an hour!! - SIC. Yes those are free. And rightfully so; mostly rubbish and not worth a dime.
So bad luck Joe. But you could have known. Everyone knows that you have to save all your belongings - up to the last comma - before you allow Bill Gates cs to do anything at all on your machine. They think all computers are their's and can do whatever they like ...

Alex, I don't understand. Yuri wants a uncial with clear differences between lc and uc. Then a small caps does not really do the job. True?
So while there are plenty on uncials around with lc and uc the same just difference in size that doesn't do the job.
To be clear - again - the job can not be done. A true uncial - by whatever name - can not differenciate between lc and uc. Lc and uc do sipmly not exist in the Celtic script. Force it and you don't have a uncial anymore.
It is like wanting a zebra - or a tiger for thatmatter - with both vertical and horizontal stripes. You get two very cross animals but non of them being a zebra nor a tiger. Imagine what you would get when you cross these ... a crossword ?

I think you will need to find a mix between the two. To me the orma and eopl in the top one looks fine and the No, al, Pe and le in the bottom one.
Yes a tedious job. But with a font like this why don,t you start with the kearning pairs of, for example, the Avant Garde? I figure then most of the work is already done ...
The same is probably true for Champagne & Limousines.

[quote]@Lynda V.E.:Might be a good idea to pull up some of the older threads from this site, that urbanfonts copied, and show them how they looked HERE, so folks can see. Especially those with Alex posting in them, so they can see any similarities and/or changes.[/quote]
After my last post I and before I had to go out I sent the spider out. The spider did his job well and brought home a copy of the forum as was. WAS. I checked a few minutes ago when I came home and that forum is now clean.
[quote]@alex:... also, another GREAT help would be you guys emailing the site owners if you notice that they link to urban.[/quote]
Last post on that forum was:

Normally costs like these are charged to the client. Being it as the costs for materials to make it possible to do the job at all or being it as time or so. In this case that would mean tops half an hour but probably just ten minutes more time spent on the job. Who is going bankrupt over there in Fargo?
What you also could do is find a site where you can type your own text to see an example. Copy the image, scale it, restore it, vectorize it and ... Bingo!! ... you've got it. Will take you less than an hour.
Yet, think again ... an hour, that is in between $50 and $100. How much was that font again?
I would not hesitate. I would take the risk of going bankrupt.

are the publishers legally allowed to send the fonts for their print job to the printing company? Or is that violating something multi-computer license?
