The frustration of incomplete typefaces
I’ve acquired a bunch of type recently. For some inexplicable reason, many of the typefaces are very plentiful except for one or two letters. For example I have a very full drawer of 24 point Futura with almost no upper case Es or Ns. Is it possible to buy small quantities of individual letters to complete these and solve this problem?
If you are lucky enough to find some replacements your problems might not be over. The issue might be base line alignment. Each company casting type would have their own alignment settings. Perhaps if you can find someone to cast the letters for you they could match your font alignment
I’m feeling that frustration, too - it’s especially difficult when it’s a common letter!
