ITC Edwardian Script Complete Family Pack

Samples:

Script typefaces are emotional, lyrical, even passionate communicators. Scripts have a soul, and a heart. So it is with ITC Edwardian Script, a new typeface from the hand of Ed Benguiat. Unlike traditional calligraphic scripts which tend to suggest a flat-tipped writing instrument, ITC Edwardian Script was influenced by a more flexible steel-point pen. This writing instrument can be pushed as well as pulled, which means that varying the pressure, rather than the angle of the nib, produces thick and thin strokes. Great time and care went into the design of ITC Edwardian Script. Not only did the delicate and sophisticated letterforms have to be painstakingly drawn and redrawn, the connections of the letters had to be drafted so they created perfect junctures between letters. In addition, Benguiat rendered a series of “baroque” alternate capitals for those occasions when “merely beautiful” is not enough. ITC Edwardian Script is available in regular and bold weights. Special baroque capitals have also been designed and included as alternates to the standard design.
