Fontstand

The Matrix II Inline version, applied to the Matrix Extra Bold and Script Bold faces, came about to satisfy the demand for novelty fonts. Wedge-like highlights were applied creating a stylized three dimensional effect reminiscent of the relief found in stone carved Roman lettering. The effect worked particularly well in the capital letters. A Highlight version was created for use with Matrix Inline. The Highlight fonts allow the inline areas to be "colored in" with a different color or shade by placing a separate text block of the Highlight font behind the corresponding Inline font.
