About CA Telecopy Font Family


Introducing CA Telecopy, a unique typeface that embraces the aesthetic of digital imperfection and nostalgic pixelation. Inspired by the crude typefaces of early 90's fax machines and low-resolution monitors, CA Telecopy captures the essence of technological glitches and digital errors. This typeface transforms the typically undesirable qualities of bad hints and unclean type into a bold design statement.

CA Telecopy's pixelated style evokes the charm of early digital communication, where text appeared grainy and distorted. Each character is a testament to the era of glitch art, where visual anomalies and artifacts create a striking visual impact. The design process behind CA Telecopy focused on intentionally creating "wrong" and "bad" forms, resulting in a typeface that revels in its own imperfections.

Available in light, regular, medium, and bold weights with three different levels of bad pixels CA Telecopy offers versatility for a variety of design needs. Its extensive character set ensures that it can handle any application, whether for print or the web. This font is perfect for projects that want to deliberately degrade designs and add a touch of retro digital chaos to your work.

Three different quality levels give you simulated pixel heights of 40, 24 and 15 — Telecopy A, B and C.

Rediscover the beauty of imperfection with CA Telecopy, where every glitch and pixelated edge tells a story of the digital past, especially the nostalgic era of the early '90s.

About Cape Arcona Type Foundry

The Cape Arcona Type Foundry is a type studio based in Essen/Germany run by Stefan Claudius and Thomas Schostok, established in 2002. In our work, we are aiming for typefaces with a non-conformist personality. Over the years, the field of business expanded from individual typeface design to custom font production, corporate and logo design and complex text-font families. This is the kind of work we love: Thinking beyond the ordinary, imagining better worlds and better fonts.
