Mixed designs of Futura and Bodoni (Fudonis) are quite popular. Apart from being contemporary, such fonts provide excellent readability. However, most of the existing ‘mixtures’ were not good enough in terms of balance for P. Kraft. He was finally inspired by a noticeable ‘mixture’ in a Japanese fashion magazine.

Bodywerk is a futuristic looking font, but worn and torn!
The font has got more than 200 ligatures - including double letter and number substitution - along with a huge load of most common letter combinations!
You will need to use OpenType supporting applications to use the autoligatures.

Body Art is a unique font whose upper-case and lower-case characters are formed by combining the silhouettes of two to four men and women of different figures and sizes to form the letters of the alphabet. Each of these carefully orchestrated combinations of human silhouettes is its own unique example of inspired typographic body art.

Bodonian Script is a set of seven fonts that can be mixed with each other freely. Number 1 is the most true to Bodoni. Number 2, 3, 4 and 6 have different capital letterforms. Number 5 is like 4 but with elaborate swashes. Number 7 has underlining swash-capitals and lowercase end-letters. The fonts can also be mixed with my Bodoni Classic fonts!
IMPORTANT: In Microsoft-Word or Wordpad you will run into problems with the long decenders and ascenders. This can not be changed!!! I advise you not to use these fonts with that software. More…
Some of the accents are different in different fonts as well as the ligatures and the ampersands. These Bodonian fonts have the biggest variety of letterforms in any of my scripts. I packed them in 7 single packets so that they can be used as single cuts as well as mixed. You need to have opentype-savy software only if you want to use the ligatures automatically, otherwise everybody can use these scripts.
Have fun! Your Bodonian type-designer Gert Wiescher

Giambattista Bodoni (17401813) was called the King of Printers and the Bodoni font owes its creation in 1767 to his masterful cutting techniques. Predecessors in a similar style were the typefaces of Pierre Simon Fournier (17121768) and the Didot family (16891836).
The Bodoni font distinguishes itself through the strength of its characters and embodies the rational thinking of the Enlightenment. The new typefaces displaced the Old Face and Transitional styles and was the most popular typeface until the mid-19th century. Bodonis influence on typography was dominant until the end of the 19th century and even today inspires new creations. More…
Working with this font requires care, as the strong emphasis of the vertical strokes and the marked contrast between the fine and thick lines lessens Bodonis legibility, and the font is therefore better in larger print with generous spacing.
Chauncey H. Griffiths Poster Bodoni displays characteristics of the advertisement fonts of the first half of the 20th century. The font was most often used for posters and signs, eventually including neon signs.

Bodoni Classic Swing is another of my decorative additions to Bodonis family of typefaces.
Bodoni did not design decorative versions. His quest was for purity in book design. He was purely as a printer who had to cut his own fonts because there simply weren't any foundries in those days. I think if Giambattista were alive today he would design many decorative typefaces.

This is my new, completely worked over and fine-tuned Bodoni Classic for Europe (no Greek and Cyrillic). I have added a set of elegant Swashes (B) and 2 alternating uppercase swirly Initials (C) as well as two lowercase end-letters (D). The fonts A and B have extensive kerning, which the initials (C) don't need, they are aligned to replace the standard capital letter. The lowercase end-letters (D) are aligned to replace the standard lowercase letters, so you might need to add a blank after the swirl. For good measure I throw in an extra set of swings for 1 Dollar (E).
