Important about engraving fonts

The Director of an old typographical house in an article about culture of writing has written: The best index of an typographical house is its font. The best insight into the quality of an printing firm you can get by having insight into its archive of fonts. An excellent index of the culture of a person is also the font. A literate person has a legible handwriting, an illiterate person leaves a thumb mark.

On the basis of the mentioned, easy can be made the following conclusion also for engraving houses: If the Engraving house of Friedrich Deckel had good fonts, then it has surely good engraving machines. Engraving fonts should be a prestige matter of each engraving house, a mirror of its own technology reflection.

Possibly because of the huge energy, which the producers spent on technology and software in the last decade, like that they have no strength for the development of fonts or like that somebody else should have to do that.

This work should perhaps really somebody else do, for example, the Association of users of engraving and Laser systems of the world. Imagine the world of Graphics without the standard True Type and Type 1 fonts.

By individual analysis of each group of lack we will generally try on one page to demonstrate the problems and give several possible solutions.

We are convinced that by solving this problems with fonts, the production of engraving machines, laser systems and also software for engraving would substantially increase.
