Librum E FONT Download
Designer: David Bergsland
Publisher: Hackberry
The major focus of my life and ministry at this point is book design. In the brave new world of 21st century self-publishing a new paradigm has arisen: the indie small shop. One of the problems is that all books are published as ebooks, and many books are published only as ebooks. There are two problems with this: character availability and licensing.
The licensing problem is solved by including an ebook license with all of the Librum,
Librum E, Librum Sans and Bream fonts.
The character availability is the core of the design. OpenType features do not work yet with ePUBs [though it is in the spec, if I understand correctly]. Kerning doesn't work, and so on.
So these five fonts have only the 256-character [or less] ASCII set. A separate small caps is included. It has lining figures {proportional} and small caps instead of the graphics. The other four fonts have graphics to give bullet choices in lists, oldstyle figures {proportional}, and care given to character shapes so they will work better without kerning.
For a great deal on the Librum Book Design Group, all fifteen fonts, please look at the bottom of the Buying Choices tab!
