ABOUT

Linotype, Monotype and font forging

Ulrich Stiehl from Heidelberg accuses: "In the font forging industry, "nefarious and evil knock-off clones" (quote from Bruno Steinert) are customary. Two forging methods are applied: (1.) Monotype Method: This font forging method at first selects single letters and forges these letters, and then it forges trademark and copyright notices. (2.) Linotype Method: This font forging method does not waste time by the forging of single letters, but straightaway forges trademark and copyright notices. The report forgers.pdf (155 KB, 9 pages) serves the purpose to inform public prosecutors and court judges about the font forging methods in the font forging industry."
