Allura
A formal connecting script in the copperplate tradition, where the thick strokes come from pressing a pointed nib apart rather than from the width of a broad one. Robert Leuschke drew a lot of these and this is the restrained one: the flourishes are there but they stay out of the way of the words. The hairlines are genuinely hair-thin, so it belongs on an invitation rather than in a caption.

Questions
- Is Allura free for commercial use?
- Yes. Allura is released under the SIL Open Font License 1.1, which allows commercial use with no fee and no attribution requirement. You can use it in client work, in products you sell, on the web and in print. The one thing you may not do is sell the font file on its own. The licence is inside the download.
- Can I use Allura in a logo?
- Yes. The licence covers the font software, not the artwork you make with it, so a logo set in Allura belongs to you — including if you later register it as a trademark. You do not need permission and you do not owe anything to Robert Leuschke. What the licence stops you doing is redistributing the font file itself as a product.
- How do I install Allura?
- Download the zip and unzip it. On a Mac, select the 1 font file inside and open them, then press Install Font. On Windows, select them, right-click and choose Install. Restart any application that was already open before it will show up.
- Does Allura support Turkish?
- Yes. Allura includes the characters Türkçe needs that plain Latin does not — the dotless ı, the dotted İ, and ğ, ş, ü, ö and ç in both cases. This was checked against the font file itself, not assumed from the fact that it covers Latin.
- What languages does Allura support?
- Yes. Allura covers Latin, Latin Extended, Turkish and Vietnamese, across 1,087 glyphs. Anything outside those alphabets is not included — the character map further up this page shows exactly what you get.
