Rockinstead counts 1, 2, 3, 4, ..., 8... Eight variations per letter! Plus alternates for numbers and even for punctuation marks, wow! It is equipped with clever OpenType programming to make substitutions on-the-fly: the Contextual Alternates feature, with the help of a very careful kerning table, takes care of cycling the alternates in an amazing random-like way, impressively mimicking a true handwritten text. The Discretionary Ligatures feature manages the substitution of nifty cursive catchwords, adding a charming twist.
This typeface was originally painted on paper, inspired by Ralph Steadman’s seminal lettering style. On a first glance it may look quite wild - and it proudly is, indeed. But, hey, look again: it is stylishly wild, it is strong, unpredictable, full of attitude and good energy. This multifaceted font will certainly strike its way on free-spirited design applications.
Just be warned: it is seriously addictive!
