XiparosLombard 1.0<br />
<br />
 -- created by Pia Frauss in 2005, with High Logic's FontCreator Program --<br />
<br />
is a FREE FONT. I hope you'll enjoy it.<br />
<br />
<br />
As to its lower case characters, the XiparosLombard font is identical with the XIPAROS font -- apart from the d, which has been replaced by a straight version. The upper case alphabet, however, consists of Lombardic capitals. Since they were taken out of a book some three hundred years younger than the charters that provided the lower case,  they are much less austere, and much more rounded than contemporary ones would have been.<br />
<br />
The XiparosLombard font contains no decorations, and you'll find all the brackets, curly brackets, and greater/less signs here that are lacking in the XIPAROS font, as well as the +, =, and bar sign. Do I have to mention that the number sign has taken the shape of a long s?<br />
