We’re pleased to announce the arrival of our latest typeface Maple.
A distinct departure from our recent releases, Maple is a warm grotesque
with modern sensibilities and historical influences from the 19th and
early 20th centuries. Suited for both text and display settings, the
complete family contains four weights, companion italics, rugged charm
and ostentatious flair.

Maple is available for license as a complete family, in packages
containing two weights each, or as single weights. Both Mac and Windows
purchasers will receive two formats: OpenType (which includes extended
language support) and traditional PostScript Type 1.

I used Maple in Interrobang 3 and it set beautifully. The idiosyncrasies didn’t stand out as I had feared. Definitely a great alternative to the other woody grots like Knockout and MT.

We LOVE idiosyncrasies! :-D

I guess I’m not the only one to think that Process is one of the most interesting new foundries (?)

Wow, that’s really great. It’s like wood type on steroids…

By the way, Stephen, I’m looking forward to using woody grot in a sentence.

I like it too, altough it looks much like storm’s stuff, it still has the Process touch and it’s not so spicy.
