Ansage does not claim to be neutral; it escapes from the rationalist sans of closed strokes and regular forms. Meaning Announcement in German, Ansage is versatile and communicates effectively across a broad range of media and formats such as branding, posters, websites, apps, titles and compositions with little spacing).

Ansage is a sans serif font with a strong personality that emerges from an interest in and the study of a wide variety of typographic specimens of Gothic fonts from the nineteenth century. The design process behind Ansage brought about constant transformations in form; the result is a compact and robust font, with a large x-height, small ascenders and descenders, and open terminals that grow in expressiveness as it increases in weight.

It is available in 10 weights, ranging from Hairline to Black, and 3 widths – Condensed, Regular and Expanded – plus italics, which make a total of 60 perfect variables to combine and contrast with each other. In addition, it also includes multiple open-type functions such as alternative styles, Old Style Figures, Tabular Forms, fractions, case sensitive, ligatures and more.

Fudge Sauce is a fun font duo from Blue Vinyl Fonts!

Fudge Sauce contains the following opentype goodness:

Contextual Alternates
Let’s start with the starting and ending lowercase letters! Sentences with only lowercase typically need some oomph. The starting lowercase letters add impact and balance. Lastly, the lowercase endings finish words off nicely.

The lowercase L gets an entry stroke where needed to add balance.

Swashes
Swashes can be turned on and you shouldn’t have to worry about collisions. If in a rare situation you get a swash that doesn’t play well with others, just highlight it and turn off swash for that character. You can also just drop in swashes manually.

Ligatures
Ligatures will add variation with some common double letter combinations. Turn on Ligatures and swashes and the double lowercase t will come alive!

Alternates
There are alternates that can be manually selected from the glyphs palette. Highlight a letter and check to see if there are any alternates that can be applied.

Stylistic Alternates
With stylistic alternates on, you get a traditional double story uppercase and lowercase Z.

Ornaments
There’s a few brushy swoops. These need to be placed manually in a graphics program.

Fudge Sauce Caps is an all caps font that pairs well with Fudge Sauce!

Language support is broad for both fonts and extends to the Central European market. Fudge Sauce contains 784 characters and Fudge Sauce Caps contains 366 characters.

The Novera family is a sharp geometric sans in ten weights plus matching italics, available in two versions – Modern and Classic. It has a contemporary, approachable and multifunctional yet characteristic design, that comes with an extensive glyphs set of 1000+ glyphs per font, meeting all typographic demands.

The Design
Vertical terminals, circular shapes and angular apexes – Novera truely breathes geometry! But the concept goes beyond the application of rational geometry. The intension was to create a highly legible family suitable for every day usage inspired by the work of Paul Renner, Eric Gill or Jakob Erbar, combining the geometric with the human and the functional with the unconventional. Although Novera is inspired by the past, its appearance is unmistakingly modern.

Modern vs Classic
Novera is available in two versions - Modern and Classic - born from the same source file but with different characters set as default. This creates subtle but effective distinctions such as the double-storey a (Novera Modern) which is optimized for legibility in longer text paragraphs, as opposed to the single-storey a (Novera Classic) which allows a purely geometric appearance. Another distinguishing feature are the ascenders on Novera Mondern, which extend above the cap height for an elegant presence, compared to the ascenders on Novera Classic, ending at the cap height, for a compact and helvetica-flavored look. Novera Modern was intended for usage in body copy, whereas Novera Classic was planned for headlines, short paragraphs or logos, but both versions can be used vice versa too, of course.

Alternate Characters
To maintain neutrality and a modern appearance, the standard character set largely dispenses with idiosyncratic forms. This is in contrast to the alternative forms with the gill-like lowercase letters g and t as well as a traditional shape of S and the German ligature t/z, which traces back to old German spellings. Also inspired by German poster designs from the early 20th century are the elongated i-dots and dieresis-dots that can create eye-catchers in headlines or logos. By the way, both versions, Novera Modern and Classic, can be created via stylistic set 1, 17 and 18.

Burlesk Queen JNL was inspired by the hand lettered title “Gypsy” on the sheet music for “Everything’s Coming Up Roses” from the movie musical based on the autobiography of famed stripper Gypsy Rose Lee.

With just four basic letters to work with [G,Y,P and S], a full character set was drawn from scratch.  The design features bold spur serif characters on individual ‘marquees’ bordered with lights.

Burlesk Queen One JNL is the original version with white characters on black panels, while Burlesk Queen Two JNL has those panels stripped away to provide black letters on a white background.

During the 1940s and 1950s, the Miller Music Corporation issued a number of its songs with a stock cover design for their “Miller Series of Piano Solos” but the song titles were hand lettered in an Art Deco dual line design.

Recreated digitally as Music Lesson JNL, this type design is available in both regular and oblique versions.

Lettering found on the cover of 1915 textbook pamphlets from the Woman’s Institute of Domestic Arts and Sciences, Inc. [of Scranton, PA] inspired the creation of Nouveau Formal JNL.

This attractive serif typeface is available in both regular and oblique versions.

The 1920 song “Noah’s Wife Lived a Wonderful Life (‘Cause Noah Had to Stay Home)” is another example of one of those overly-worded song titles from early 20th Century composers.

What’s more important for type enthusiasts is that the title was hand lettered with a round nib pen in a slightly ragged Art Nouveau style.

Cleaning up the ragged design, the end result became Nouveau Showcard JNL, which is available in both regular and oblique versions.

Free form Art Nouveau hand lettering found on many early-1900s ads for various personal care items manufactured by the Colgate Company were the design inspiration for Stylish Nouveau JNL, which is available in both regular and oblique versions.

A 1964 piece of sheet music entitled “Old Soldiers Never Die (They Just Fade Away)” was based on the farewell speech General Douglas MacArthur gave to Congress on April 19, 1951.

This particular edition of the song sheet had part of his speech (as well as its title) hand lettered in a free-form sans serif reminiscent of the lettering done by such noted lettering artists as Paul Coker and Saul Bass.

The casual and playful style of this type design became the inspiration for Swing Vote JNL, which is available in both regular and oblique versions.
