What are some good fonts that are "beveled"? I mean Like FF Primary. Or more generally, fonts that require overlaying multiple layers (set at different values) to get some sort of effect (generally depth).

Thank you.

The relatively new Shades collection from H&FJ is quite fetching.

I think you need to count P22's Bifur, a revival of Cassandre's two-tone, in this category.

The breathtakin' fabulous '( LTR ) Federal', from LettError, maybe.?

I've made a (free) layered thing called Dummytapes based on the Dymo. You can get it at my site. (mac only)

We have a few two part fonts at P22/IHOF, but Hedonic from Robbie Woodard would be the most "beveled"
