FONTLOG for the Federant font
This file provides detailed information on the Federant
font Software.
This information should be distributed along with the
Federant fonts and any derivative works.
Basic Font Information
Federant revives the Reklameschrift typeface Feder Antiqua by
Otto Ludwig Nägele (1911).
The main challenge of designing a modern interpretation was to
equilibrate between applying visual corrections for overall
consistency and staying close to the original source.
In certain cases the historical authenticy was sacrificed
in favour of an even typographic color.
This project required research of historic type specimens
in search for the missing letterforms. The unsusual
interpretaion of the Yen currency symbol can be found
in typefaces of that period.
Designed by Olexa M.Volochay, Alexei Vanyashin for Cyreal.
Federant is a Unicode typeface family that supports
languages that use the Latin script and its variants, and
could be expanded to support other scripts.
More specifically, this release supports the following Unicode
ranges: Latin-1

1. Federant-Regular.vfb (Original Source files with contour overlaps)
2. Federant-Regular-OTF.vfb (Merged and optimized file)
