What You Can Type With Retro Vintage

Retro Vintage covers the full alphabet in upper and lowercase, plus all ten numbers, so you can set names, dates and prices without switching fonts. Everyday marks like &, !, ? and @ are there too. Thanks to its accented letters, it also works for Spanish, French, German, Portuguese and Italian, not just English.

How to Use the Alternate Letters in Retro Vintage

Retro Vintage has 3 stylistic sets built in as OpenType features. In Illustrator and InDesign, open the Glyphs panel (Window > Type) and select a letter to see its alternates. In Photoshop, use Window > Glyphs. Figma shows them under the text settings as OpenType features. Microsoft Word can switch on stylistic sets in the Font dialog under Advanced. Canva and Cricut Design Space can't reach OpenType alternates, so for those, set the word in a desktop app first and import it as an SVG.

Where Retro Vintage Works Best

Think of Retro Vintage for vintage signs, barber shop logos and retro labels. Its lowercase letters are small compared to the capitals, so set it a size or two bigger than usual. Put it on an off-white or kraft-paper background and it instantly looks older. Because the family has more than one style, you can mix them in a single design for headings, subheadings and highlights.
