Reproduce Medieval Italian Manuscripts!

TransRoman Medieval for Windows

TransRoman Medieval for Windows includes professional-quality, hinted, scalable TrueType® and Type 1 fonts containing the Latin alphabet plus special characters and diacritics necessary to reproduce medieval Italian manuscripts. The primary font is TransRomanMedieval plain. Complementing this is TransRomanUp plain, which contains the superscripted lowercase English alphabet for overstriking both lowercase and uppercase English letters. It also includes a raised strike-through, a raised period and a raised medial dot to be used in combination with the superscripted overstriking letters. Hard copy artwork for distinctive medieval characters provided by Katherine Brown.

System Requirements: The fonts install into Microsoft® Windows 7, Vista, XP, or 2000, and work with all Windows 7-, Vista-, XP-, and 2000-compatible applications that allow the user to select fonts from a font menu. (A previous version is available for Windows NT, Me, 98, or 95; please contact the Sales office.) The product includes a User's Manual and keyboard layout chart(s). The included keyboard driver(s) allows access to four characters per key (instead of the normal two) and alternate keyboard layouts. All documentation is in PDF format, and can be viewed and/or printed using Adobe Reader. The fonts will print to any printer at the highest quality allowed by your printer.

A custom version (fonts only) is available for Linux, but Linux users must provide alternate keyboard input for characters in the extended character set. If you are ordering for Linux be sure to select the Linux box on the Order Form.
