Newton’s Lore

For the fontophile in your life, how about this translation of a book by Hermann Zapf (of Dingbats, Palatino and Optima fame amongst others). Other Zapf books are selling on Amazon (albeit not necessarily cheaply :).Alternatively there’s this cool “Upper Case, Lower Case” poster.via Quarter Life Crisis.

Having upgraded a PowerBook to Leopard, it seems that the “ITC Zapf Chancery SWA” font has vanished, which is annoying for all those documents that used it. Probably I’d guess it was being loaded from the Classic System Folder or something. Will have to hunt it down in the pre-Leopardisation backup.
