ABOUT THIS SHAREWARE FONT
This font is distributed as shareware as part of a promotion for the
Scriptorium Font Library.
If you use this font for thirty days or for any publication or commercial
purpose you are obligated to register it as shareware.
To register the font you may pay a $5 registration fee to Ragnarok, or
you may order a sampler disk or the disk on which the font is featured for
$15. The later option is the best deal because you'll get a whole disk of
legitimate, registered fonts for a very low price.
If for some reason you wish to distribute this font as part of a
shareware collection or package, please contact us first at the address
(netmail or US Mail) or phone number given below.
The rest of this is our standard catalog, but without our great font
samples. To actually see what our fonts look like open the accompanying GIF
file(s). If you like this font you'll love some of the hundred-plus other
fonts in the Scriptorium Font Library.
The Scriptorium Font Library
The Scriptorium Font Library is a collection of fonts designed by Dave
Nalle of Ragnarok Games for use in their publications, but now available to
the public by direct mail. The emphasis of the collection is on original
display fonts, unique historically based calligraphy, foreign language and
unusual decorative art fonts. Unlike large font houses which produce cloned
packages of the same 100 standard fonts, we offer high quality fonts you've
never seen before and can't get anywhere else.
Provided here is an up to date listing of all the font disks available at
this time. Each disk includes as many fonts as we can fit on it (usually 8 to
12 fonts). They are fully registered when you purchase the disk.
SFL-1001-1009: Font Samplers
Every three months we release a new sampler disk with our latest fonts on
it. Each sampler includes 8 fonts and sells for $15, or you can get a year's
subscription (4 samplers) for $40 per year.
SFL-2001: Text Fonts
This contains 10 unique serif and sans-serif fonts which meet the high
resolution demands of all text uses. The collection includes some elegant
traditional fonts (both serif and sans-serif) like our Tancred and Palomides
fonts, plus some very unusual offerings like the Kelmscott font based on
William Morris' Troy font from the Kelmscott edition of Chaucer's works. $15.
Update $5.
SFL-2002: More Text Fonts
A collection of sophisticated and flexible text fonts, including some
unique fonts and some based on classic styles. Includes Boswell, Alcibiades,
Proserpina, Ruffian and 6 other fonts. $15. Update $5.
SFL-2003: Text Fonts III
This collection includes some great new fonts, such as Adramalech,
Patrician, Telluria and Everest. $15. Update $5.
SFL-3001: Display Fonts
This disk features 10 attractive display fonts, including several art
nouveau and medieval styles, plus a couple of unusual special use fonts. Our
favorites are the Starfield font, which looks like a scattered field of stars,
the Buccaneer font, drawn from 17th century wanted posters and the Ariosto and
Elysian fonts based on hand drawn fonts of the Munich Jugendstil movement of
the 1890s. $15. Update $5.

Celtic-style fonts, fonts based on medieval and renaissance calligraphy and
calligraphy from several 19th century art nouveau designers. Includes
Bastarda, Courthand, Fabliaux, Rackham and others. Because these are based on
genuine calligraphy they may not include all the characters you may expect and
may include specialty characters or strange alternate forms for some letters.
$15. Update $5.

lettering styles plus several Eastern European styles and a special font based

A collection of fonts for languages which don't use the English alphabet,
including both obscure real world and historical languages and role-playing
game world languages. Check out the Bahairic and Futhark fonts if you want
something really different. Oh, and did you say you were going mad because
you couldn't decorate your computer-generated icons without Church Slavonic?
Well, try Patriarch. It reads in English, but looks like Church Slavonic.
$15. Update $5.

initial or small picture. It includes several illuminated manuscript
alphabets, the extremely intricate Maidens font and some Art Nouveau floral

presented on this disk, but they are well worth it. $15. Update $5.

This collection of decorative fonts includes some medieval classics and
some very detailed 19th century fonts, as well as decroative initials based on
the works of Howard Pyle and John D. Batten. Because of the intricacy of
these fonts only 5 fonts are presented on this disk. $15. Update $5.
SFL - 6003: Decorative Initials III
