Symbols differ slightly but letters the same?
I don't have the DSA Dolch any more but do have Signature Plastics DSA dyesub and double-shots as well as a BBC Micro if you want to see any specific ones side-by-side.
I’d love to see any scans or whatever you might have also.
I might just have to setup my wife's pro camera on a tripod and start work on the truetype version.
I’d buy that font in a hot second. I’d also definitely help beta test it.
I just scanned this and took another photo in high res in case that helps? https://aresluna.org/gorton.jpg https://www.flickr.com/photos/mwichary/30228478857/in/album-72157701959120494/ …
Doesn't appear to be the same font. Q385 all quite different...
Oh, yeah, both links are Gorton Normal, not Modified. Just thought it’d be interesting / possible OpenType option for your font. :·)
