New font "Shmuel CLM"

by Yoram Gnat

Hi All, A new font, "Shmuel CLM" joins the Fancy font family which now contains 11 fonts of different shapes. I designed the font in memory of Shmuel Katz (August 18, 1926 - March 26, 2010), the Israeli artist, ilustrator and cartoonist. The font is inspired by the letter forms of his hand drawn "Passover Hagadah" for the Kibutzim. "Shmuel CLM" is available on the fancy fonts page of Culmus project both as fontforge SFD source file and as truetype file. It fully supports Hebrew niqud (vowel marks, shin dots, dagesh, rafe and meteg) positioning. Cantillation marks (Teamim) were made transparent, thus text including them should still be displayed with proper positioning of the niqud. Regards Yoram Gnat.

New font - Journal CLM

by Maxim Iorsh

Hell, I’m proud to announce the new font “Journal CLM”. It joins the fancy fonts section which now contains 10 fonts of different shapes. The font is available at the Culmus site (http://culmus.sourceforge.net <http://culmus.sourceforge.net/> ) in both Type 1 and OTF formats; the latter can also be used in Windows. Please note that in Windows the font is listed under its Hebrew name as "ז'ורנל", and can be found at the very bottom of the list of fonts. I would be glad to hear your wishes and comments. Best regards, -- Maxim.
