An analytic type 3 font
Brigitte-Normal (1994) was entirely created in a mathematical manner. Bezier curves were defined by typing in coordinates, and the letters of the font were painstakingly optimized for aesthetic effects. No fomnt editor was involved at all! Consecutive letters have perfectly aligned joins as the sample shows, thanks to the same join algorithm used by Knuth in his Metafont, and developed by Hobby. It is a stroke font. The nib of the pen is selected by the user, again mimicking what Metafont does. |
