This year we’ve expanded the font family to twelve fonts including small caps and italics.
While the new Corleone has been greatly refined and is a much more professional quality font we’ve decided to still offer the original two fonts for free.
Corleone is the perfect font for t-shirts and other merch, the new small caps make this font stand out and bring attention to whatever you use it on.
Corleone is the font you can’t refuse.
Tech notes:
Corleone was designed after a famous movie logo in the 1970’s with a title name that sounds a lot like The Grandfather if you know what I mean.
The movie had three installments, my original font was patterned after the logo for the third movie, the new Corleone Primo and Secondo versions are patterned after the logos of the first two movies.
One thing you will not find in this font family is the puppeteer or puppet master hand because it’s been registered as a separate trademark of Paramount Pictures.
If you’re working in an application that has layers then you’ll be interested in using the four extra over score glyphs in this font.
When you open up the glyph map in Adobe Creative Suite you should see the over score glyphs when you scroll to the bottom.
These extra over score glyphs allow you to extend the top line of a single capital letter, with four different lengths you should be able to mix and match to achieve the length that you desire.
When using the over score glyphs it’s best to divide your word or headline into separate text objects, the cap being one object and the remaining letters being the second.
If you use the over score glyphs on a single text object then with each over score that you add the text after it will get pushed down the line.
