Additional films were sold to start-up typesetting companies in order to increase their product selection. Font Diner will create new digital versions of the Filmotype collection, recreating it to meet todays graphic design standards. [...] We intend to release the Filmotype library in OpenType format so the original designs can be fully realized with a dynamic feature set including alternate glyph forms and automatic substitutive ligatures.

In 2007, Font Diner started publishing digitizations of the collection: Glenlake (condensed Bank Gothic, by Mark Simonson), MacBeth (script), Alice (casual script), Zanzibar (calligraphic), La Salle (brush writing originally by Ray Baker in the 1950s, named after Chicago's LaSalle Street), Ginger (Mark Simonson; masculine headline typeface genetically linked to Futura), Austin (paintbrush), Brooklyn (hand-printed), Honey (handlettered script), Jessy (handwriting), Modern, Vanity, Filmotype Ford.

Jack Kerouac

Jack Kerouac, born Jean-Louis Lebris de Kérouac (1922-1969) was an American novelist and poet. Considered a literary iconoclast, especially because of his road trip book On The Road (1951), he had a tremendous influence on his Beat generation. Several type designers created typefaces to visualize Kerouac's character and work:

• Kerouac (2017, Arturo Anghinoni Campedelli).
• Saucy Jack (2014, Nick Matavka).
• Kerouac (2001, Joe Baldwin).
• Kerouac (1994, Marty Bee).
• Beatnik Barbie (2012, Alex Kaczun) and Beatnik (1997, Alex Kaczun).
