About

Translated from original German description: In the Typografie.info forum there was a thread in which the question of what embossable typefaces are all about was discussed. After some conjecture I went on a search and came across this writing. The “Prägefest” was actually a completely normal metal typeface, but in contrast to many other typefaces connected with it, it had no overhangs that could break off if the letters were subjected to too much pressure.

Well, digitally it’s not quite as embossable anymore, because I deliberately went beyond the (virtual) cone at the connection points so that the individual letters overlap a little and there are no white gaps between the letters.
