About Whitenow Font Family


In the year 1528 Pierre Attaignant led a revolution in music printing. His method of once-press moveable type, greatly simplifying the original 3 impression process developed by Petrucci, remained in use till near the end of the 17th century. The method could only realize one line of music per staff, and the introduction of barlines as a common means of aligning multiple staves brought this method to a close after nearly two centuries of use. This font is meant to allow the printing of music using that method with the notation of that era. It is largely based on an exemplar printed by Snodham of London.

About Proportional Lime

Proportional Lime Type Foundry is a second floor operation that is overrun with a bird, cats, and unpleasant levels of heat, some of which is generated by the obsolescent machinery, and the rest enforced by the laws of thermodynamics. The bird owns the cats. And the cats own the humans. However, even considering the aggressive nature of the bird's endless commentary, and the cat's intermittent proofreading sessions, work is still routinely accomplished, and the goal of creating historically influenced typefaces achieved. We at PLTF desire to create typefaces that accurately recreate the feel of the old printing technologies for use in the modern world and also to explore novel designs.
