Die Calligraphy wurde von professionellen Typografen jahrelang vernachlässigt und in die kunsthandwerkliche Ecke gestellt. In den Vereinigten Staaten dagegen – so zeigen seit Jahren die Ergebnisse der Type-Directors-Show – gilt "Lettering" als wichtige Disziplin – auch in der Werbung. Mit dem zunehmenden Einsatz von Handschriften und handschriften-inspirierten Schriftfonts ist auch das Interesse an der Calligraphy neu erwacht. Nachfolgend einige Einblicke in die Welt der Calligraphy, verfaßt [...]

Linotype presents here a look into the world of calligraphy, written by the internationally known expert, Gottfried Pott.

More about the fonts:
Arioso™
Arioso stems from an early form of Old Face, developed during the 14th and 15th centuries in Italy. The style mixed Roman capital letter forms with Carolingian minuscule for the lower case. This combination puts it in the same basic family as many other Italic Chancery typefaces, like Hermann Zapf's ITC Zapf [...]
Frutiger™ Capitalis
At first glance, Frutiger Capitalis Regular and Outline may seem related to the roman type Capitalis Monumentalis, but upon closer examination, the fonts reveal a vitality unknown to the characters the Romans etched in stone. Frutiger confesses that creating Capitalis was "a liberation." After working on so many sophisticated and meticulously designed typefaces, Capitalis was a breath of fresh air.
Stylistically, Frutiger Capitalis Outline forms a bridge to Frutiger [...]

The phenomenon of the art of lettering has been with us since the very beginning of writing. This surely comes from the desire to express the content of the text in a very specific way. Each era has had its own forms of artistic expression, and so it is with lettering. The art of lettering is the art of “subtle” notes, as in chamber music, for example, where the fine, in-between notes also become audible or visible. Emanating from England prior to and at the beginning of the 20th [...]

Blackletter typefaces evolved out of Northern Europe's medieval manuscript tradition. Grouped into four sub-families (Textura, Fraktur, Bastarda, and Rotunda), this style of type is characterized by the wide-nibbed pen strokes that are make its letterforms. Often heavy, these strokes leave a “black” color on the page. The German term for Blackletter, gebrochene Schriften, or "broken type", is also a helpful term to remember while [...]
Portrait
We can read because we perceive elements and forms which are familiar to us. So in order to even recognize words, we must first decipher the elements which make up the shapes of the letters – a process which involves the interplay of myriad aspects. To a certain degree, many of us are aware of these aspects. Yet Adrian Frutiger knows about such shifting dynamics in perception in a way no other person can, as he has been instrumental in researching the subject and over several decades [...]
Prof. Karlgeorg Hoefer was one one the most influential calligraphers of the 20th Century. Aside from leading numerous workshops inside the United States, as well as abroad, he taught for decades at the Hochschule für Gestaltung in Offenbach am Main (Germany).

Font Designer: Alan A. Blackman, 1994
Galahad™, designed 1994 by well-known San Franciscan calligrapher Alan A. Blackman, represents one of his signature styles.
The name comes from Sir Galahad, son of Sir Lancelot and knight of the Round Table at King Arthur's court.
As a sans serif font with a calligraphic flair, it is mainly for display use but with its geometrical open forms shorter texts at smaller point sizes can also be set with it.
Font Designer: Gottfried Pott, 1999
About the typeface:
Duc De Berry™ is characterized by two major traits: on one hand, the subdued, closed forms of the lower case characters; on the other, the lively lines of the capitals.
These seemingly opposing forces make the tension in Duc De Berry especially appealing. Each individual capital letter could also serve as an initial to add interesting emphasis to modern typography.
Historical note:
Next to the Gothic Minuscule, [...]
Font Designer: Johannes Plass, 1997
German designer Johannes Plass was influenced by historic broken letter faces, particularly Caslon Gotisch&trade, although the rounded corners give the font a handwritten look. Linotype Auferstehung™ is particularly good for headlines in larger point sizes.
Font Designer: Johannes Plass, 1997
Linotype Auferstehung™ is part of the Take Type Library, selected from contestants of Linotype’s International Digital Type Design Contest of 1994 and 1997. German designer Johannes Plass was influenced by historic broken letter faces, particularly Caslon Gotisch, although the rounded corners give the font a handwritten look. Linotype Auferstehung is particularly good for headlines in larger point sizes.
Font Designer: Frederic W. Goudy , 1916
In 1915, Frederic W. Goudy designed Goudy Old Style, his twenty-fifth typeface, and his first for American Type Founders. Flexible enough for both text and display, it is one of the most popular typefaces ever produced, frequently used for packaging and advertising. Its recognizable features include the diamond-shaped dots on i, j, and on punctuation marks, the upturned ear of the g, and the base of E and L. Several years later, in response to the [...]
Wilhelm Klingspor Gotisch™ appeared in 1925 with the Klingspor font foundry in Offenbach, Germany. Designer Rudolf Koch based his work on the Gothic forms of the 14th century and his broken letter font is often seen in advertisements. However, the ornamental letters do not match today's legibility standards and Wilhelm Klingspor Gotisch is therefore recommended for use in headlines and short texts with a point size of 12 or larger.

Works and Samples of Richard Yeend
The stamp collector Alan Blackman collects the treasured items in his own unique way: he sends mail to his home from all over the world with the beautiful and unusual stamps he finds on his travels. And as he is a calligrapher as well, he also takes care that the writing on the envelopes is as beautiful as the stamps he collects. Following is a sample of the ’Letter Artworks’ of Alan Blackman.
Seit Schrift geschrieben wird, gibt es das Phänomen des künstlerischen Schreibens. Dahinter steht das Verlangen, dem Inhalt besonderen Ausdruck zu verleihen. Jede Zeit sucht die ihr entsprechenden künstlerischen Ausdrucksformen auch für die Schrift. Schriftkunst ist eine Kunst der "leisen" Töne, mit der Kammermusik vergleichbar; auch die feinen Zwischentöne werden hörbar bzw. sichtbar gemacht. Zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts sind, ausgehend von England, durch die Schriftreformer William Morris, [...]
