Fonts

Here are the fonts used in game artwork that I have needed for making my own
game components. For both games below the fonts were not freely available, but
in the case of Caylus a good replacement was available, and for Carcassonne I
used MyFonts.com's sample text rendition to get words or pieces of words, and
then I used potrace to trace a vector contour and save the words in EPS.
This gives the possibility to change the size of the words without any of the
aliasing problems that occur when resizing a bitmap. Assembling the words or
pieces of words to make titles was annoying, but that's better than nothing.
Caylus
The offcial one is Engraver's Old English.
Replacement fonts, available for free:
- Cloister Black.
- Old London.
- English Towne (this is the one I used, it's very similar to Engraver's Old English except the lowercase “y”).
Carcassonne
The font is very similar, although not identical to Lindsay, and has no known free equivalent. Lindsay is thinner, its legs are a bit longer and has no serif on e.g., the left leg of its “n”.
