Tired of Helvetica much?
Replace it with this authentic early nineteen eighties typewriter font to roughen up those boring straight lines! ;)

Compatibility info
This font should work on most of the systems out there. I've tested it using different applications both on Windows and OS X and have not encountered any problems, so far - anyhow, please let me know if you do find any.


Version history
3.4 (20015 06 19) - Icelandic news: eth and thorn have new vector art. And even more bugs has been crushed.
3.2 - More bug-fixes...
3.0 (2013 08 10) - Vectorized the entire font, so no more pixelation at big sizes. Also there is even more characters and better kerning now.
2.1 (2013 03 11) - Bug-fixes and even more "non-us" characters. Download this version
1.1 - More characters have been added. Download this version

This font is based on the typewriter font Elite-Modern 10/12.

Really proper font. I like how it resembles ink flows and weight build-ups just like with an actual typewriter.

Hey, this font is fantastic. I love typewriter fonts, though I'm not sure why.

If I use it for anything, I shall credit you, but honestly, really well done.

It makes me feel like I should hear a ‘ding’ at the end of each line. Nice, this was what I was looking for. Yeah, I’m a geek.

You have to put it in the fonts folder on your computer. If you got windows this can be found in the "control panel" under "Fonts". Just save the file somewhere, and drag it to this folder.
Just google for an tutorial if you're having further problems.

Cheers!

This is an interesting font. I don't use typewriter ones too often, so it was fun to play around with yours. It's a rather large font though, eh? In Word, size 12 looks more like a 14. Anything below 12 starts to distort the characters a bit weird, though. And, for some reason, the apostrophes won't show up. It's just quirks like this. I'd use it for like, a poster or for styling purposes like that, still!

Also: would it be too much trouble to ask if you could add "ç" to your font, as well?

Thanks a lot! Well, I have added the ç now, but I am to lazy to get it uploaded, I'll fix it later today; if I remember.
