Designed by Stephen Miggas, Turbinado™ is a dingbat, script and display sans font family. This typeface has ten styles and was published by Aerotype.
The Turbinado™ Set has nine typefaces and an elements package designed to play well together.
Included are three weights of brushed casual script, each with a dry version, two condensed all caps faces, another hand printed caps face and a set of over 100 brushed elements that include swashes, botanicals, shells, arrows, repeatable patterns and a few other doodads.
The script fonts have plenty of alternate characters including swash glyphs for ends of words and all of the fonts use the OpenType standard ligature feature to automatically differentiate consecutive letters –but using separate glyphs, rather than a single ligature so they can be set on a curve or colored separately, etc.
Taking it a step further, all of the Turbinado fonts also automatically differentiate like characters that are separated by another letter when standard ligatures is enabled.
But it has a few ligatures too, like using a single crossbar to unite the At and Att letter combinations.
The two condensed faces have a third set of less uniform glyphs that can be used to create a more quirky, fun and bouncy effect when the discretionary ligature feature is on.
The script fonts have 10+ lowercase t (and double t) crossbar alternates that can be selected from the OpenType glyph table manually, or you can use the contextual ligature feature to automatically insert a bigger crossbar as the surrounding letters allow throughout a text box or document.
Hello? Are you still there? :) And for those intrepid typographers who would rather fashion their own lowercase t to custom fit a specific design, all of the lowercase t ascenders and crossbars are also available separately in the glyph table when t is selected, and can be combined manually.
