字體屬性：
Old English是一種數字字體，1990年左右由Monotype的設計人員制作。但它的起源可以追溯到更早：該字體的外觀設計是基於Caslon Black，這是由英國著名的William Caslon鑄造廠於1760年鑄造的一款哥特黑體字。
這個設計在整個英格蘭已經風靡瞭幾個世紀。其刻字風格（也被稱為Old English），在英國各地都可以被找到。Old English風格的字體屬於哥特黑體（Blackletter）類別。它們很好地將中世紀和維多利亞時代的設計屬性結合起來。這主要是因為他們誕生於Middle Ages時期的Textura形式在19世紀末再次變得非常流行！這種Old English字體對於哥特黑體（Blackletter）來說非常清晰易讀。也許這就是為什麼它比起像Fraktur這樣的德國哥特黑體（Blackletter）種類更受英國和北美讀者的歡迎。
如今，Old English又一次流行起來，它是證書、文憑或任何需要威嚴及權威外表的應用的理想之選。對於報紙標語、節日賀卡和結婚公告而言是一個靠譜的選擇。
Old English is a digital font that was produced by Monotype’s design staff, circa 1990. But its roots go much further back: the face’s design is based on that of Caslon Black, a Blackletter type cast by the venerable William Caslon foundry in England, circa 1760.
This design has been popular throughout England for centuries. Its style of lettering, conveniently also called Old English, can be found all over the UK. Old English-style typefaces belong to the Blackletter category. They nicely combine the design attributes of both the medieval and Victorian eras. This is mostly because their Textura forms, which were born during the Middle Ages, became quite fashionable again in the late 1800s! This Old English font is very legible for a Blackletter face. Perhaps that is why it is more familiar to readers in the UK and North American than German Blackletter varieties, like Fraktur.
A favorite once again today, Old English is ideal for certificates, diplomas, or any application which calls for the look of stateliness and authority. It’s a sturdy and sure bet for newspaper banners, holiday greeting cards, and wedding announcements.
