<p>Jacques Francois revives the c. 1760 Enschedé no. 811 type specimen by Jacques
|
||
|
|
François Rosart (1714-1774), made for Enschedé Printing House. The concept was
|
||
|
|
to create a contemporary webfont with an even typographic color while
|
||
|
|
preserving the essential historic peculiarities and expanding the character
|
||
|
|
set. Compared to the historic specimen the x-height is generously increased
|
||
|
|
and contrast lowered.</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>Jacques Francois is designed for medium to small sizes. For this purpose its
|
||
|
|
features were altered: contrast was lowered and x-height significantly
|
||
|
|
increased. Designed by Manvel Shmavonyan, Alexei Vanyashin. Jacques Francois
|
||
|
|
includes old style figures.</p>

|
||
|
|
Francois Shadow</a>, an incised variant of the Jacques Francois font.</p>
