Donald Trumps Handschrift als kostenlose Schriftart namens „Tiny Hand“

Bei Buzzfeed haben sie aus dem Redemanuskript von Donald Trump ein Font gemacht und stellen dieses zum kostenlosen Download zur Verfügung. Als Alternative zu Comic Sans, vielleicht.

Graphic designers, and those interested in typography, may have done a cursory search through their font libraries, only to discover they don’t have Tiny Hand. That’s because, until Friday morning, the Tiny Hand font didn’t exist. Those same readers investigating the details of the type might be curious: Why are the proportions so strange? Why is the font almost all capital letters? Who made it, and why?

WWF Panda Font Project

Bildschirmfoto 2015-05-27 um 08.38.33

Der WWF Japan will mit dem Panda Font Project darauf aufmerksam machen, dass weltweit nur noch 1864 Pandas in freier Wildbahn leben und sie somit fast ausgestorben sind. Ob das gelingt, weiß ich nicht, aber ein Panda Font wollte ich ja schon immer mal haben (ohne das zu wissen). Bisher lässt sich allerdings keine downloadbare Version davon finden.

A panda-themed font has been created by WWF Japan to raise awareness and encourage donations for their panda fund-raising campaign. Each character features a stylized panda head, and was designed together with Ogilvy & Mather Japan.

According to the WWF, giant pandas are under severe threat from humans and are considered endangered. Only 1,864 of them exist in the wild. Using this font will help raise awareness of this sad fact and can make an impact on conservation efforts.

Eine Comic Sans Schreibmaschine: Sincerity Machine

Jesse England hat dem „Punk“ unter den Schriften eine eigene Schreibmaschine gewidmet.

Sincerity Machine: The Comic Sans typewriter was made after viewing a document with a typewriter font present in it; I realized there was nothing stopping me from altering a typewriter to write in a different font. I used a laser engraving machine to etch new letters out of acrylic, and glued them onto the strikers of a 70’s era, Sears-branded Brother Charger 11 typewriter, which I found in the street a couple years ago. I also used a vinyl cutter to make new key covers as well.
