I have been looking for real types for PostScript printers, but not
found any. I'd appreciate any pointers or ideas you may have.
I need:
1) Real small capitals. Standard caps in a smaller size won't do.
2) Old style digits. (2 should be as high as an s, 3 and 5 should
be as deep as j).
I would like to have:
3) Old-fashioned sorts. Like 'ct' and 'st' ligatures, old-fashioned 's'.
A Caslon (or perhaps Bembo or Jenson) with all this would be perfect,
although I would like to hear of anything with small caps and old
style digits.
Do you know of any typeface that may fit this description?
