Upright Script

[taprackflip]

I am looking to find upright script font in .TFF or .EPT format.

Using a program like Coreldraw, or illustrator, you may want to find a traditional script font, and simply reverse skew it, bringing the forward slant back to a more upright angle.

I have an old copy of a catalog known as: Type Specimens by Neon Type Division, TYPEFOUNDERS OF CHICAGO, published back in 1962. It has been a handy reference for many styles of ‘straight’ letters for engraving.

There is also an online archive, which you may access here: https://archive.org/details/NeonTypeDivisionTypefoundersChicago1962pt1

The images (while not entire font file programs), are 600dpi JPEG images, mixed RGB and greyscale, and can easily be copied or downloaded, (and then converted), for use.

One important thing that the catalog does help with, is that it names many old type styles that were later converted and used digitally. For instance, Murray Hill font, a very elegant upright script typeface, (designed by Emil J. Klumpp for an American Type Foundry), can be found here: https://freefontsfamily.com/murray-hill-font-family-free-download/

I hope that this might help.

Kindest regards,
