ABOUT

Kraftfahrzeugkennzeichen [Bart Stax]

Bart Stax is the designer of Kraftfahrzeugkennzeichen (2008), a free font that looks exactly like the lettering used on German car license plates. I can't understand how Germans can live with this monstrosity---I know that it was designed for maximal differentiation, but there are limits to functional design! Another German license plate font, by an unknown designer, is FE-Font (1997, see also here), which is closer to the original FE license plate design (FE stands for F&aml;lschungs-Erschwerend, translated as "hard to forge").
