I especially like that Royal leaves out 1 and 0, true to form.<br /><br />Depending on the care one wants with "typewritten" props, fine dodging and motion-blurring of letters can reproduce the look of a touch typist.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09973668443243174328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-423050459919800481.post-38866405914825229042015-05-12T17:43:07.091-07:002015-05-12T17:43:07.091-07:00This looks like a good font, thanks.

I have noticed on one or two of the other 'typewriter' fonts that there is a left and right side to quotation marks, so you have to watch out for it as it wasn't on real typewriters.josefkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02082824095195575519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-423050459919800481.post-83377762101640974772015-05-12T12:04:20.760-07:002015-05-12T12:04:20.760-07:00'Mom's Typewriter' is another good one...'Mom's Typewriter' is another good one, if you want a slightly more used look.Philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18286585667808822050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-423050459919800481.post-26569821627401410552015-05-12T09:40:13.192-07:002015-05-12T09:40:13.192-07:00That’s a useful electronic font for simulating a p...That’s a useful electronic font for simulating a piece of text produced on a manual typewriter. Typed text with a manual typewriter often shows the idiosyncrasies of the typist and the typewriter itself. With a touch typist operator, type characters are struck unevenly and sometimes there is hesitation shown by a rebound (double) strike. Anybody who has touch typed with a manual typewriter can usually detect if a text was typed by a touch typist or was done a hunt-and-peck type which tends to be very evenly struck with the stronger index finger. Electric typewriters (and computer printers) produce very evenly ‘struck’ text – see also daisy wheel printers. Having been spoiled with computers and software over the past years, it would be hard to go back to a vintage typewriter for other than making a prop so this electronic font is really useful.
