BUJARDET FRERES TRUE-TYPE or POSTSCRIPT TYPE 1 FONT<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
... A little piece of history ...<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
This font was created after the design of letters used by my ancestors <br />
<br />
of Bujardet Freres, back in 1838, for their adds. Especialy for the world <br />
<br />
fair of 1900 held in Paris, where they got a silver medal for, at the time, <br />
<br />
their high tech creation, a new type of varnish. <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
For historical reference, please find in the same archive a file named <br />
<br />
"BUJARDET.GIF", which shows a card from the company that gave <br />
<br />
this font it's name. It was printed for promotional purposes. In the left <br />
<br />
corner, there is a mention saying "Silver Medal at the Paris World Fair <br />
<br />
1900, exhibiting for the first time". This card shows other nice types as <br />
<br />
well, which will eventually become fonts, when I have time to create <br />
<br />
them.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
To-day, this latest version of Bujardet Fr„res contains all the character <br />
<br />
set for Mac, including all the symbols and greek characters. It is now <br />
<br />
possible to use it to write in any current language, as it contains all the <br />
<br />
accented and special characters for Spanish, German, Nordic, etc. For <br />
<br />
those who need ogonek, hungarian umlaut and other accents, look in <br />
<br />
the higher ASCII with an utility like PopChar, where these accents are <br />
<br />
placed. Just enter first the accent, and then the character (lowercase) you <br />
<br />
want it to take place on. That way, you will be able to use this font in <br />
<br />
such languages as Polish, Turkish, Esperanto, etc. <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I hope you like this latest version as much as the previous ones.<br />
