Blackletter is the classic "German" printing type. Starting in the 16th century and lasting until the 20th century, most works in Germany were printed using blackletter fonts.

Today, blackletter fonts are mainly used decoratively. If you want to communicate a feeling of old-world quality or nostalgia, blackletter fonts are the preferred choice – use them on signs, in brochures or on invitation cards.

The font collection Elegant Blackletter Fonts contains a whopping 70 vintage blackletter types of all styles and ages – Fraktur (blackletter), Gothic (textura), Rundgotisch (Rotunda) and Schwabacher.

The fonts in this collection come equipped with the full range of Western European accented characters and the euro currency sign.

The Elegant Blackletter Fonts collection inspires you to create vintage-looking designs easily.
