 |
|
Hi, 
could somebody tell me if there are free calligraphic fonts downloadable in the WWW?
I am looking for fonts who are compatible with my German version of Win XP. I can use SimSun and similar fonts - but the are not calligraphic. The kaishu fonts don't look like painted by brush. And I hope to get such fonts like the old script (gu wen and the like) and lishu, xingshu or caoshu etc.
If not, is there any other good chance to get such fonts? And if they are to buy - what do they cost. Is there such available in Germany?
Bye

Haiko,
ich habe bisher keine brauchbaren gefunden (wobei ich annehme, dass Sie nicht die üblichen Fonts suchen, die man ohnehin mit Windows oder Mac mitgeliefert bekommt). Früher gab es sehr schöne mit dem alten Mac OS, jetzt nur noch die "einfachen".
In einem etwas früheren Thread hier äußerte ein Kalligraphie-Experte, dass derartige "Pinselschrift"-Fonts ohnehin nichts taugten. Meist haben sie nicht alle benötigten Zeichen.
