What You Can Type With Darleston

Ligatures and Smart Letters in Darleston

Its ligatures switch on by themselves in most design apps: certain letter pairs join into one specially drawn shape.

Where Darleston Works Best

Darleston is a natural fit for wedding invitations, certificates and elegant quotes. Its lowercase letters are small compared to the capitals, so set it a size or two bigger than usual. Script fonts read best in short bursts, so keep it to names, titles and one-line quotes. Skip all caps: script capitals are drawn to start a word, not to fill one.
