Typo, how can two fonts look so similar and be sold under the various names like that?
Whats keeping me from making slight edits to Helveticas faces by designing out aspects i don't like and incorporating small details of flare i do like, fixing spacing, etc., whatever they may be and reselling it for my own profit?
for example i've always thought that there were Helvetica lookalike competitors that look better but very much he same, the black faces in particular

Some fonts are direct copies of other digital fonts, others are just inspired by the same pre-digital vernacular source. FF Schulbuch is the latter. It is a package of fonts based on the metal types used by German textbook manufacturers in the 50s and 60s.

Typo, sweet, thanks. I thought some of what I see were copies and now I feel I know they are :)
What I wouldn't do for some of those metal typesetting faces too!
diggity, if you think hydrox and oreo are the same, your mom's been feeding you hydrox out of an oreo box! ;)
