Lephnia Display Caps
====================
by Doug Peters (https://www.Doug-Peters.com & https://Dougs.Work)
QUICK SYNOPSIS
==============
Lephina Display Caps offers 108 glyphs. The font supports the Basic Latin character set (upper case characters are copied to the lowercase register, numerals, basic punctuation and symbols (@ $ % ^ &) are available, including the TM and SM marks, Copyright and Registered symbols, the TEL sign. There is another version with lowercase, more characters, better attention to kerning and multilingual support.
The SIL OFL freeware license allows this font to be used as a desktop font, or as a webfont, for personal, professional, non-profit and/or commercial use.
This is a freeware font distributed under the very liberal SIL Open Font License (OFL). If you don't want to donate to get the full version, you can always edit this one (using a different reserved font name) and make it all your own, just how you like (but do update the docs and distribute all derivatives under the same SIL OFL Freeware license). For license specifics and all the legal info and use details be sure to see the information provided through the included 'License.txt' text document in this distribution archive. If the license documentation legal speak is insufficient, there is a hyperlink there that will give you the proper license online, which is accompanied with a plain-speak FAQ.
ABOUT THIS FONT
===============
Cloned from my font 'Vertalics' originally, but nothing remains of that font, this turned into a complete rework once I decided where I wanted to take it.
It's just an outlined novelty sans font in a black weight with a repeating pattern, or texture, which is a mesh grid allowing the background to glimmer through. Therefore, this font demands to be seen in a large format (poster/billboard/titling) sizes, or possibly headlines. I does do extremely well for dramatic HD or 4K video titles and graphics.
This font is Copyright 2018 & 2019 Doug Peters ( https://www.Doug-Peters.com/ or https://Dougs.Work/ ) and released as freeware under the SIL Open Font License. You are entitled to use this font however you want. Credit for my original work IS greatly appreciated. There is a version with lowercase and more glyphs I offer to donators.
Categories: Black, Textured, Patterned, Novelty, Poster, Titling, Headline
Type: Sans Serif
Weight: Black
Web font: Yes
Commercial use: Any use, yes!
Derivatives: OK (please use a different reserved font name)
Redistribution: Encouraged

FontStruct:
===========
Ever want to create your own font?
Try Fontstruct at https://w3n.us/fs
It’s free, easy and it’s fun.
Fontstruct © 2018 Rob Meek.
Of course, I have mentioned FontStruct, the free tool I used to make this and many more fonts. Fontstruct is a free font editor available at which was the tool chosen to make this font - it’s fun, free, and easy to learn and use. You can even make your own version of this font with it, and there is a great little community of designers there that share with each other, though if you want, you may well keep to yourself and still use the font editor.
https://w3n.us/fs
Font Editor Software:
=====================
If you would like to get yourself a decent font editor to create your own font(s) on your PC or Mac, I recommend Fontographer, although TypeTool might do the job, too. FontLab is the flagship typographic tool of the Fontlab company. However, do note that I do use Fontstruct online.
Fontographer...
http://x.co/fontograph
Type Tool is a good basic Font Editor (I recommend the ScanFont plugin for this)...
http://x.co/typetool
And the king of the paid font editors...
http://x.co/fontlab
However, if you have a spare PC or Mac and you want to run a great font creation tool, install Linux and get FontForge. That's what I did and I am having fun with it. I could never get FilterForge to work on a Windows port of the program, but it runs great on my old Windows i5 laptop that came with Windows 7 home (and never did run right). But Debian Linux runs stable, like a champ, and I finally have a great system for FontForge.
https://w3n.us/ff
That said, if you liked learning on Fonstruct (as I did), you can still use the Fonstructor as a fast wire-frame font modeling tool and still get all the bells and whistles by exporting *.glyphs files for further development in the full featured Glyphs font editor for the Mac...
https://w3n.us/glyphs
...You have to have either a Mac or a Hackintosh for Glyphs, though.
Still yet another consumer based font editor is Font Creator by High-Logic, and it isn't a bad program, but is Windows only. The good news for Windows users is that there is a free trial, and it gets updated quite a bit.
http://w3n.us/FontCreator
Microsoft now puts out a free font maker that you can scan your hand writing into. You do need a Windows based device with touch capabilities, though...
https://w3n.us/fontmaker
Speaking of hand made fonts, there is also the online tool, calligraphr, which allows you to scan in your lettering using printed worksheets...
https://w3n.us/calligraphr
One of the best and newest font editors works as a plugin for Illustrator or Photoshop (Creative Cloud versions, only) and only costs about $80.00. Its called FontSelf and is in use creating many modern profesional fonts today...
https://w3n.us/fontself
Getting Started:
================
There are a lot of online resources to help you get started creating fonts such as typography guides & learning type design...

If you need help making sure your font name isn't already reserved as a font name by someone else (all font family names should be unique), a good start is:
https://w3n.us/fontname
-That should be enough to get you started right. ;) There are plenty more places online where you can find direction and font design instruction, too. The SIL (Summer Institute of Linguistics is very much an authority, and font sales houses often help designers out with informative articles and cheat sheets.
Submit Your Font:
=================
Be sure to submit any font you might create or legally modify that we could use here. Any font that has a complete letterset (A-Z, a-z, 0-9 &+~!@#$%^&*()_=-`"':;<>?/|\[{}],.) that is freely distributable would be greatly apprectiated, especially if it is OK for commercial use. We also love fonts that can be used as web fonts. Be sure to use a unicode letterset when you save your work or the font simply won't display right here at Font-Journal. It's our most important requirement.
About Font-Journal:
-------------------
Font-Journal is a cataloged archive of freeware and shareware fonts that I maintain for my small business, start-up and freelancing clients. I try to collect PC truetype freeware fonts that can be used for commercial purposes, and shareware fonts that can be used for commercial purposes upon registration and/or payment of the shareware fee. I also try to collect freely distributable web fonts of the same variety. The end result is a pretty decent font repository, although I can only work on it in my spare time, which I have little of.
http://www.font-journal.com Short Link: https://x.co/font
Submit to Google Fonts:
=======================
You can also submit your own font to Google Fonts. You can either use FontStruct to submit your finished SIL Open Font Licensed font which fulfills the required Google's required 215 basic basic glyphs (Google Font submission info is available on FontStruct), or you can submit it yourself. More info is available here, on how to submit your font to Google Fonts on GitHub:
https://w3n.us/addfont
(-I will update this Short Link at W3N.US if/when I find a better page on GitHub.com for this info.)
Font Cloud:
===========
Font Cloud is a great place to store your fonts online so that if you need them, you can get them wherever you are as long as you have internet web access. This is a big deal with designers, publishers, printers, or absolutely anyone who relies on a custom font for a logo, letterhead, headline, content, documents, website UI, and all those appropriate webfonts. If you are designing fonts yourself, this may well be a necessity for you, so you can always access your projects. You will get considerable free space just for signing up with Font Cloud, and there are all sorts of options to expand your storage limits.
https://w3n.us/fontcloud
Collecting Quality Fonts:
=========================
If you are interested in grabbing commercial fonts for your own work, I am often showcasing commercial fonts that are free for a limited time, and quality freeware fonts that are OK for commercial use, at one of my fonts groups on Google+ or LinkedIn:
https://w3n.us/f0nts Fonts community at Google+ Communities.
https://w3n.us/Fonts Fonts, Typography & Lettering group on LinkedIn.
And I have a blog where I often announce my latest font creations or showcase the fonts I like:
https://w3n.us/fm FontMaster blog on Google's Blogger.
There are a few links where you can get a free featured font...
Free Daily Gifts! Creative Fabrica Daily Freebies include a Font & Graphics:

More About Me:
--------------
You heard a lot about me already (if you read through it). But, there is always a lot behind an old tired face...
I started out as an motorcycle racer and mechanic. That didn't work out and I never got in a race car as planned. I wound-up as an illustrator, animator, doing some programming and tech support. Plus I have always been amatuer artist, photographer and videographer. I was designing logos, posters and graphics in college with Illustrator and Photoshop, and wound-up making a website portfolio just afterwards. A few people liked it and I wound-up as a freelance web design studio. Then I expanded into web hosting, then domain name registrations and servers, offering a complete set of webmaster tools as Domain Hostmaster. I then added the Domainance store in an effort to keep .name registrations and transfers available when our vendor dropped it. HD Web Hosting offers great domain hosting, cloud hosting and web server solutions with a free domain name for each paid hosting account, and a free Let's Encrypt SSL certificate for each and every domain in your account. Site Domains has been added to the list ensuring that I offer the best deals on domains between all the major registrars.

https://HDWebHosting.com Short Link: https://w3n.us/webhost
https://SiteDomains.com Short Link: https://w3n.us/domains
Nowadays, I am just trying to corner a peice of the domain name registration and website hosting space, offering more for less than most with better customer/technical support. Professional domainers, designers, developers, optimizers and webmasters do like how I keep prices as low as possible and that I add my expertise and value where I can. In my spare time I have other projects, such as designing my own fonts.
I do love to help where I can, so if you feel like reaching out to me, contact me via:

Free Informational Websites:
----------------------------
I mentioned that I like to create free informational websites. Font-Journal is just one of these sites.
I also have others that are small websites and blogs which have specific little bits of info that are related to domains, cloud hosting, web design, website promotion, social media and online marketing. I try to keep these sites up-to-date, as well:
https://DomainPerfection.com
My domain name industry blog (complete w/ the odd rant).
https://Domainers.Name
My premium domain name portfolio & info.
https://PremiumBrand.Name
Premium brand names showcase website.
http://StandardLogo.com

'Mobile-First' Responsive Website Design:
-----------------------------------------
If you are interested in getting a website designed for yourself or your business, I still do that at Salamader Design. Stop by and check me out there. I have a growing portfolio of sites I need to add there...
https://Salamander.US Short Link: http://x.co/SDesign
Intellectual Properties:
------------------------
As mentioned, I also design logos and complete brand identity packages, as well as consult and educate people on business branding, including how to conceive, create, design, develop, manage, and protect their own intellectual properties and brand names. This is my primary interest and the whole reason I took control of my own names and brands when others failed me (miserably).
To further promote my business websites, I established a T-shirts & gear products sales page at:
https://w3n.us/logo
That site also has a few slogan and cartoon style Tees, as well as gear that is available for purchase. The store also acts as a showcase for some of my own logos and brands.
Stock Photography:
------------------
Additionally, I try my hand at stock photography every so often. I especially like to take photos of wildlife, but it is hard to always get a good shot with wild critters like deer, turkey, pheasant, etc. But I try to get a few good shots now and again and submit them.

However, I do not recommend setting up any new profiles on any social media/networking site as it is clear that US corporations are spying on our interests, compiling our personal data, raiding our lives, betraying our privacy and using artificial intelligence to conduct espionage on each individual in order to monetize their digital lives, all under the noses of a do-nothing government. This is a sorry state of affairs in 2019. 'Nuff sed.
Thanks for reading... remember to VOTE.
