Overview
Carta Rinascente is an original typeface family created for Ariadne, our writing software. Composed upright forms meet italics that follow the movement of a pen, designed for headings, quotations and short passages.
Also available on its own, it can be installed on the desktop or embedded in websites and applications. The four styles share a family name and vertical metrics, keeping line spacing consistent when bold and italic are mixed. Ready-to-use files and sources are distributed under the SIL Open Font License 1.1.
