Like letterpress printing? My new Display Font is full of letterpress texture I made the Lino Gothic from multiple prints made out of a linocut. It was then hand-printed on paper, giving it a weathered vintage woodtype effect. It also includes a free hand drawn script font.

The OpenType SVG bitmap font includes multiple versions of each uppercase character to create a realistic letterpress type. In fact, for each A-Z character, the SVG font has five alternatives, all printed slightly differently. Therefore, you can mix and match the alternatives to give your design a unique look and feel.
Display Font printed like letterpress
The typeface contains a tremendous amount of detail that a traditional font can’t, so it looks incredible.
In addition, it also includes a hand made marker pen typeface and a traditional vector typeface.

OpenType SVG Bitmap font
Lino Gothic uses the new OpenType-SVG Bitmap font format. A traditional vector font has one colour and no transparency. Lino Gothic has full transparency and thousands of shades of black and grey. The OpenType-SVG Bitmaps technology gives the font so much more detail than the old font format.
OpenType SVG, please read
OpenType-SVG bitmap is a new technology. Support is limited but improving. OpenType-SVG Bitmaps fonts only work in the latest versions of Photoshop CC2017+ and Illustrator CC 2018+, plus a handful of other native OSX apps. They also work on the more modern versions of windows again only in Photoshop CC2017+ and Illustrator CC 2018+. Windows user, you might not see your letters when you install the font, but it does work in the applications mentioned above. Adobe Indesign does not fully support OpenType-SVG bitmap fonts—so buy this at your own risk. You have been warned.
letterpress Image backups If your software is too old I’ve provided high-resolution images, so you can still manually compose letterforms inside Photoshop or your application of choice.
Due to the limitations of OpenType SVG fonts, Lino Gothic SVG and Vector doesn't include any diacritical marks.

About Simon Stratford
Hello, that's me or itsmesimon, aka Simon Stratford. I design everything from custom typefaces for advertising agencies to ready to buy fonts for designers (like you) to the occasional digital oil painting for TV and print.
I've spent over 20 years in the design industry, from teaching photoshop, web design, movie promotion, and branding agencies to digital marketing—I think I've done most jobs. I got tired of the rat race and the daily commute in London. So I stopped doing things I didn't what to do—and started doing things I did want to do—more creative things.
So if you want to be part of my tribe, follow me on
