2/2 of the letterpress printing, which because of the guild restrictions was absolutely impossible. So subsequently there were used #Antiqua typefonts (like today). The Nazi printers weren't happy about the decision, eg Adolf Müller, printer of the party organ "Völkischer Beobachter", who loved the "aura" of the script he had always been using. This script was the Bernhard-Fraktur. It was, by the way, designed by the #Jewish graphic designer Lucian Bernhard in 1913.

Dabei fällt mir auf, dass es auf Mastodon leider nicht möglich ist, Fremdwörter typographisch zu kennzeichnen, was zu Verwirrungen und Missverständnissen führen kann. Schön wäre, wenn die klassische Methode unterstützt würde: Deutsche Wörter in #fraktur, Fremdwörter in #antiqua.

While proofreading, I observed 2 distinct ways #Typography is realised in the 1674 #EthicaComplementoria print from Copenhagen. This can happen when more than one worker is typesetting the print. Let's call them Villads & Emil. Villads has been doing this job for a while now; he routinely typesets all #Latin words w/ a beautiful cursive #Antiqua font. Emil, who's already having difficulty reading the #German text, uses #Fraktur for everything & only sets Latin proverbs in cursive. #BookHistory
