—-Constructivist United!—-
The P22 Constructivist set was originally designed in 1995 as a system of 5
fonts that could be mixed and matched to achieve a variety of constructed
alphabet display font settings. With Opentype, we have unionized the 5 fonts
plus added many new characters into one “pro” font. More alternates, more
language support, more circles and squares... Registered users may upgrade
at a nominal cost.

—-And in Commemoration—-
To celebrate this release, we have issued yet another Constructivist Coffee
Mug. The mug, like the font itself, is bigger and better. It is a 17oz red
ceramic mug with the phrase “Bigger Coffee For Better Workers”. It is
available for free to the first 100 purchasers of the Constructivist Pro
font set.

—-Hockey Night in Buffalo—-
Few people are aware of the P22 Hockey Team and its recent sweeping of the
divisional Championship. To commemorate this event, we have produced a
limited number of hockey pucks with the aforementioned triumph emblazoned on
it. $5 a pop, get ’em while you can.
Also available in very limited quantities are P22 Hockey Jerseys.

—-New Typecaster—-
The P22 Typecaster is now improved for easier font test driving. The new
MasterCaster combines all 5 divisions of P22 into one convenient font test
setting tool. Once you type in your sample text, it will remain the sample
text for every font you try. Once you find just the right font for your
needs, you can click on “Info” and select “Purchase Options” to go right to
that font’s page. These new features make it even easier to decide on the
right font and get it quicker than ever.

That’s it for this installment.
Until next time.
