Three Rising
Stars Every month we sign up new foundries who provide new, innovative fonts. In this 14th issue of Rising Stars, we want to show you three of our top-selling new fonts.
Adore
possesses some of the most unique and imaginative letter shapes
around. Use it in plenty of applications: wedding paraphernalia,
chapter titles, posters, poetry, book covers.
Worstveld
Sting includes 13 typeface designs, including regular, condensed,
expanded and wide weights. The fonts have a casual, cursive
look and are perfect for invitations, posters, and scrapbooking.
Esta is very elegant and refined, with several styles, including upper and lowercase ligatures for both regular and bold versions, as well as an expert version for use in tables and graphs. Esta is a typeface family that can be used at all sizes.

Every day we feature a different font on the MyFonts home page, a great reason to come back to our site. Last month one of our most popular featured fonts was P22 Da Vinci from P22. The great Italian artist, inventor, and visionary Leonardo da Vinci created an extraordinary variety of work which continues to amaze those who study it. This set faithfully captures Leonardo’s remarkable imagination and includes an exclusive Da Vinci Backwards font (reflecting the artist’s own unique style of handwriting). The 72 extras included are drawn from Leonardo’s sketchbooks and journals. |

Last month we featured Bodoni Classic Deco as one of our three Rising Stars. Following its success, Wiescher Design has released two additonal Deco designs.

“Okay, it’s about time I let you know what a pleasure it is to receive your newsletter. Of all the newsletters I get (and I get A LOT on a daily basis) yours is one of the most pleasing. It comes not too frequently, it contains not too much info, the info is relevant, and it’s always fun to read.”
