ABOUT

Yoram Gnat

Israeli type designer (d. 2016) who in the context of the Culmus Project (free Hebrew fonts) made these free Hebrew typefaces:

• Taamey Ashkenaz. Inspired by the type faces used to print the Hebrew Bible during the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century, in particular by BHK (Biblia Hebraica Kittel). All variants of this font support Cantillation marks positioning.
• Shofar. nspired by Koren type, with redesigned letter forms and the height-to-width ratio. The cantillation marks are based on ancient forms (like those found in the Alleppo and Leningrad codices).
• Taamey David CLM. Based on David CLM.
• Taamey Frank CLM. Adaptation of the classical Frank Ruehl Hebrew font. Glyph spacing and line spacing are wider then usual so as to leave space for all marks. Inside the font we find the dates 2003 and 2007 and the names Ralph Hancock and John Hudson.
• Keter Aram Tsova. Based on Aleppo codex (10th century C.E.).
• Keter YG. A odern adaptation of Aleppo codex script.
