There are several new websites that have popped up that provide protected font hosting services. Their subscription royalty schemes are not much like the way current font licensing works and the service leaves a bit to be desired.

I am in the process of updating all of my fonts, and Variable needed a mild overhaul. As my top selling font family, I wanted to make sure it was living up to its full potential. One of the improvements I made was to use round dots instead of the former vertical lines for periods, accents, and the dots on the i and j. This should improve legibility and avoid confusion. I have also added stylistic alternate characters for the lowercase letters that did not have stems. This gives the font a completely different feel and better readability. I have also done some work to the stroke weight where the bowls hit the verticals. The final improvement I made was to add extended language support.

Now available for purchase via YWFT and MyFonts.com.

This wood type revival is a rare specimen, indeed. Audebaud is a charming and bold Late 19th Century Clarendon of French lineage. With its rounded terminals, and unique proportions; this font will instill a joie de vivre in any design.

The design was inspired by the work of Constant Audebaud. Audebaud was an engraver of wooden type that was used for posters and the like. His work appeared in the 1880s in the Deux-Sèvres département of France.

Going through some old type specimens, I found this example of Ludlow Tempo (1931). To my knowledge, the full family has not been revived in the digital age. Yes, it was a blatant Futura rip off, but it has unique and beautiful humanist italic forms. If you are interested in seeing more or if you know of a revival already out there, comment away.
