This is the book I'm using as a reference for my historical revival project for school. It's from the 1400s. Someday it will be a downloadable font I think.

Hey guys!

I made a little website where you can test out the progress of this revival. I will try to update it as I work on it if you are interested.

I've updated the font a bit and have finished the first draft of the lowercase letters. Let me know what you think. Same link.

@owen Regarding the font.....I'm feeling a bit dense but what should I be seeing that is different from what you first sent us?

@Baba last time I had only gotten to the letter "r" and now the entire lowercase is finished first draft. If it's not noticeable no problem I suppose.

@owen
Owen, I too, love the Jenson font. Every time I look at it I see something new and most of those things make me smile because I find them completely charming. I'm referring now to the upper case letters because that's what I have concentrated on. Soon I will look again at the lower case.
