4.0 out of 5 stars
Partly as it says,
By Tami "ghart27" (Winnipeg Manitoba CANADA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: 24 Celtic and Medieval Display Fonts (Dover Electronic Display Fonts for Macintosh and Windows) (Book and CD-ROM) (Paperback)
This is an excellent collection of 24 fonts, with printed examples and indices of the special characters for Macintosh (access to Windows special characters is described in the ReadMe file). They represent a fine collection of Baroque and Gothic lettering, but very little of the material could really be called truly Celtic. Any church could spice up its documents for special occasions with this collection. The `sz' of German formal text appears in a variety of forms. Also present are many other accented letters used in various European languages but not always included in more current fonts. Try it! Use it! There is creative material here!

Some Unique Fonts Here,

This review is from: 24 Celtic and Medieval Display Fonts (Dover Electronic Display Fonts for Macintosh and Windows) (Book and CD-ROM) (Paperback)
The fonts included in this book will surely make a nice addition to your type library. Dan Solo had a huge collection of great old and new type faces. You'll find 24 of them here. Some, you might already have, and some are so nice that I believe if you find one gem here, it makes the price worthwhile. The fonts are in both Windows True Type and Macintosh formats. The pages have the complete alphabets and a character chart. Be sure to notice the "extra characters" that are offered in some fonts.

Mislabeled,
By Fleisch (Fairfax, VA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 24 Celtic and Medieval Display Fonts (Dover Electronic Display Fonts for Macintosh and Windows) (Book and CD-ROM) (Paperback)
Weirdly, these fonts are all Gothic (actually blackletter), whereas the Gothic book in this series contains some Celtic (uncial) fonts. I think that the books were probably produced at the same time and mislabeled. Nevertheless, both are well worth buying.
