The original Headhunter shareware font was created in ©1992 by the famous D. Rakowski.
It consisted of 63 unique Glyphs, including Capital A-Z, and a few symbols, but lacked lowercase and numerals. He has since abandoned his fonts to pursue other things. On David Rakowski's (now defunct) website, he said: "At this point, I'm no longer interested in the care and feeding of typefaces, and am ignoring any e-mails about fonts that come my way. Y'all may continue to do what you wish with the shareware fonts, and send money to Columbia University if you feel that is what you must do. Me, I've got symphonies to write and cats to feed." |
I've always enjoyed this limited font, and was going to include it in BAW, but it lacked 0-9, which are basically required for clocks. Thus I took it upon myself to delve slightly into the world of typography, resulting in the birth of HeadhunterTwo. I've slightly reworked his original contribution and "fleshed out" more of the font than necessary.
As of this writing, it consists of 777 Glyphs and passes Underware's compatibility test for Latin Plus (Supporting 219 Latin based languages, which are spoken in 212 countries.) |
