- A Unique Translation of Medieval Typographic
- Forms into Computer Graphics
-
- Our images are faithful copies of medieval letterforms and
- ornaments created in bronze, stone, wood, and other materials.
- Each volume contains a complete set of capital letters, ornaments
- and other decorative elements. The images are available in
- Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) format for Macintosh computers, and
- in two formats for IBM PC compatible computers: Encapsulated
- PostScript (.EPS) and the native CorelDRAW! (.CDR) format.
-
- The images can be scaled to any size and used as clip art,
- drop cap letters, or ornaments, or they can be modified by
- drawing programs which can import .EPS files.
-
- Our four volumes (as of September 1991) are:
-
- Vol. I -- "Westminster Abbey" based on lettering and
- ornaments in early XV century monuments from the Westminster
- Abbey.
-
- Vol. II -- "Pontificale of John II," based on the
- Pontificale of John II, Archbishop of Treves, late XV
- century.
-
- Vol. III -- "The Golden Bible," based on The Golden Bible of
- Augsburg, late XV century. Plus some ornaments from
- Cramer's Bible, early XVI century.
-
- Vol. IV -- "St. Mary of Soest," based on an embroidered XIV
- century alter cloth in the Church of St. Mary at Soest,
- Westphalia, Germany.
-
- Look for more volumes in the future. This is a long term
- project, and our range is continually being expanded.
