Thanks to its accented letters, it also works for Spanish, French, German, Portuguese and Italian, not just English.

Where SP 011 Pro Works Best

Designers usually reach for fonts like SP 011 Pro when they're making tattoos, metal band logos and dark fantasy titles. 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. Blackletter is very hard to read in all caps, so type in normal upper and lowercase.
