What You Can Type With Across the Road

Colors Built Into Across the Road

Its colors live inside the font file. Photoshop, Illustrator and web browsers show them; many other apps show the letters in one plain color instead.

Where Across the Road Works Best

Designers usually reach for fonts like Across the Road when they're making greeting cards, journal pages and friendly social posts. The file has no kerning data, so in logos and big titles check pairs like AV, To and Wa and tighten the spacing by hand. Set it a bit larger than you would a normal text font. Handwriting styles lose their charm once they get too small to read comfortably.
