About

Hi there! Thanks for checking out Lumos v.1, a freeware font inspired by the Harry Potter books! I made this font after long unsuccessful searches for the display font used in the US editions of Harry Potter. I am excited to use the font, and I am equally happy to share it with other fans of J.K. Rowling’s fabulous books.

TO USE THIS FONT: copy lumos.ttf to your Fonts folder in the Windows directory.

You can use it in CAPS ONLY for a more true-to-the-book look, or use the ‘small-caps’ (lowercase) letters which have a few quirky variations. Don’t forget to be on the lookout for the hidden dingbats — I think I put in six. If you look really hard, you might find the super-tiny golden snitch! 🙂

You are welcome to share this font with your friends. Please distribute it with this readme (the zip file is an easy way to pass it along!)

Enjoy!
