FONTLOG for the Kaushan Script fonts
|
|
|
|
This file provides detailed information on the Kaushan Script
|
|
Font Software.
|
|
|
|
This information should be distributed along with the Kaushan fonts
|
|
and any derivative works.
|
|
|
|
Basic Font Information
|
|
|
|
When making digital typefaces, the more you refine the shapes of
|
|
the letters, the more energy you take away from them. Because of
|
|
that, Kaushan Script is unrefined - and carries a lot of energy.
|
|
|
|
By avoiding typographical perfection, it stays more natural.
|
|
The angles of the vertical strokes vary a little, and the
|
|
positioning along the baseline jumps around, giving it a more
|
|
rustic and natural feeling.
|
|
|
|
Most script fonts have long ascenders and descenders, and this
|
|
means they look too small when used at normal sizes on the web.
|
|
This font is optimized in the technical details to be very
|
|
readable as a web font, even when used as small as 16 pixels.
|
|
|
|
It was funded by people like you, via Kickstarter.

The name "Kaushan" was suggested by Vyacheslav Kaushan,
|
|
one of the project backers.
