What is the Regula™ font?
Regula is a Baroque alphabet taken over from a historical model including the latter’s inaccuracies and uneven letter edges.

Agreeable distraction experienced when working with Regula will please every tired computer graphic artist. The type face looks best in text, in sizes from 11 to 20 points – the model used for digitalization was in the size of today’s about 17 points. Regula has a rather narrow range of application.
