Fertigo Pro Script
exljbris · Jos Buivenga
A connected script offshoot of Fertigo Pro, developed from an italic experiment and refined with OpenType features including ligatures, ornaments and terminal forms.
About
Originally conceived during the development of an italic companion for Fertigo Pro, this script family grew into a standalone connected script with its own character. It includes extended Latin coverage spanning Central European, Croatian, Romanian, Icelandic, Turkish and Esperanto, alongside OpenType features such as ligatures, ornaments and finalised forms. Spacing and kerning were handled using Igino Marini's iKern system.
Classification
A connected script typeface derived from the italic development process of Fertigo Pro, with joined letterforms typical of cursive script design. It retains the humanist character of its parent family while functioning as a standalone script.
