Doire FONT Download
Designer: Michael Everson
Publisher: Evertype
Doire is a rectified monowidth font based on the face used on the old Royal Gaelic manual typewriter.
Doire was first digitized in 1993 by Michael Everson and originally used the MacGaelic character set on the Macintosh platform, and ISO/IEC 8859-14 on the PC. In 2008
Doire version 3 was released in OpenType format, completely compliant with Unicode encoding and with an extended character set. In 2010
Doire version 3.0.3 was released to correct some naming errors.
Doire was used for signage in a temporary exhibition Ealaín nua-Cheilteach / Neo-Celtic Art at The National Museum of Ireland Decorative Arts & History.
Doire is pronounced [ˈdɪrʲə].
