Daniel Will-Harris' Favorite Script FacesFirst, I have to admit there are only a few script faces I don't like--Park Ave. being at the top of that list--and I'm even loathe to mention it here it's so awful. In the past, when printers had few fonts, they always seemed to have Park Ave which must have been new at the time they bought their equipment in the 30's or cheap in the 50's, but now there's no excuse for using Park Ave, when you can use Coronet or hundreds of much more pleasant, attractive, functional and beautiful script faces. Of course, I also have to admit that I have seen Park Ave. used inoffensively (and even well), which only goes to prove that there are no good and bad typefaces, just appropriate and inappropriate. Almost any ITC script face - ITC/Letraset has the best and fastest growing collection of script faces of any foundry. They're varied and full of life--truly superb. Body Text FacesDisplay Faces |
