DeBorstel Brush

•  …choose

The strange name of this font means nothing other than ”brush,“ but only the Dutch understand it. The typeface is spirited, amusing and flashy. I made the handwritten original of DeBorstel Brush quickly and without interruption with a pointed brush.

In the capitals, DeBorstel Brush appears to be almost too balanced for handwriting. In contrast, the lower case letters are intentionally very individual and uneven.

A bit more life is added to the typeface with ligatures activatedwhich are constructed with alternative letter forms — and as a result, a number of problematic letter-combinations are improved.

And if this typeface is still not lively enough for you, the additional alternative character forms a e g i j l n o s t u z are available with the Open Type-Function ”Discretional Ligatures“.

Alternative forms and ligatures can be switched on and off with the help of OpenType-Functions.

DeBorstel Brush is suitable for all European languages. The DeBorstel Brush Std includes the symbols of the Unicode-groups ”Basic Latin“ and ”ISO 8859-1“ respectively ”Latin 1“ for Western Europe, DeBorstel Brush Pro includes ”Latin Extended-A,“ for Central and Eastern Europe incl. Turkish, and even Cyrillic and Greek, too.
