More about the fonts:

ITC Caribbean™
ITC Caribbean is earthy yet exotic. Jill Bell combined in her typeface experiment unusual angles and curves to produce tall, thin letters whose stroke style completes the suggestion of palm trees which this typeface brings to mind. The typeface contains capitals and small caps. The natural look of ITC Caribbean lends any work a human touch.


Carumba™
Like the name suggests,Carumba exudes liveliness and festivity. The typeface includes three different styles of capital letters complemented by a versatile lower case alphabet. Carumba is perfect for anything which says FUN!


ITC Clover™
ITC Clover marks a departure from other works like ITC Stranger and Smack. Instead of a harsh, almost aggressive character, Clover is even, rounded and friendly. It has the look of the loopy cursive writing taught in grade school, although its shapes are much more controlled. Capitals are decorated with generous loops and curlicues and combine with a lower case alphabet which is only reserved in relation to the capitals. The letters almost dance across the page even when they are static and bring their own dynamism to any animation. ITC Clover comes complete with an illustration of a sprig of clover.


Gigi™
The informal features and abundance of swirls make Gigi a charming font with the spontaneity of true handwriting. Tight curlicues on many of the letters, particularly the capitals, are reminiscent of a Parisian schoolgirl’s quill pen script. A delightful face ideal for joyous events or for use in the fashion arena.


Hollyweird™
Hollyweird is a bold display script with intentionally shaky strokes and tightly curled flourishes. The capitals are ideal as initials and the lowercase is best used tightly set. Hollyweird is a good choice for any work requiring a casual chic appearance.


Smack™
Smack is oriented toward a young generation who does not want to mind the rules. The font invites unconventional and playful use. The figures seem to be almost coincidentally shaped. Letters alternate between thin and thick strokes alternate and are accompanied by fine dots which almost look like accidental drops of ink on the paper. Smack is an illustrative font with unmistakable handwriting character and is perfect for cartoons, comics and anything else which is not supposed to take life too seriously.


ITC Stranger™
ITC Stranger is a slashing, almost menacing calligraphic typeface in a narrow, upright style. In small sizes, the strokes themselves draw more attention than the letterforms. In larger sizes, the effect is a little rougher and more diffuse, as the bristled ends of some strokes become apparent.
