About The Nautigal

The Nautigal is a formal script by Robert Leuschke, published under the SIL Open Font License. It is partly joined: most lowercase letters connect, a few pairs stand apart. Its x-height is low at 29 percent of the em, so the lowercase sits small under tall ascenders and needs size to stay legible. Capitals and terminals carry long flourishes (swash extent 0.604), so leave room around the text. The stance is a strong right slant at about 29 degrees. It suits wedding stationery, invitations, certificates.

Pairs that do not join: ov, ow, gl, yb.

Using The Nautigal

Keep The Nautigal at 24 point or larger in print and 32 pixels or larger on screen; below that the small lowercase start to blur. Export SVG for cutting machines and use the Weld option so the joined letters cut as one shape; the pairs that stand apart cut as separate pieces. Use PNG at 300 DPI for print. Before committing, type the pairs ov, ow, gl, yb in the generator: these are the ones that do not connect in this face.
