Normal and upright italic script fonts line a well-trodden path; left-leaning fonts (or “rightalics” as they’re confusingly called), on the other hand, are a rarity. Here at Schizotype Fonts we don’t like to do things too conventionally, so here’s Backstroke, a laid back script with a unique voice.

With contextual alternates for start and end forms of certain characters, swash versions of L, Q and Z (surely the most used initial caps!), and a handful of stylistic sets, Backstroke is a restrained script. Stylistic sets are:
1. the start forms of i, j, m, n, and p are used always instead of only at word starts.
2. lower case ascenders get a whole lot loopier.
3. alternate versions of G, N and Y.
4. swash L, Q and Z.
5. swaps the default Polish script lslash for a more familiar version

While fonts that lean the wrong way may be a bit more difficult to fit into your layouts than boring old regular italics, they will reward you with their individuality. Why not give it a go?

Download Kitsch Font Family From Zetafonts

Designed by Francesco Canovaro, Andrea Tartarelli and Maria Fantini, Kitsch is a serif font family. This typeface has thirty-two styles and was published by Zetafonts. Download Now Server 1 Download Now Server 2 Download Now Server 3 Designed by Francesco Canovaro with help from Andrea Tartarelli and Maria Chiara Fantini, Kitsch is a typeface happily living at the crossroads between classical latin and medieval gothic letterforms. But, rather than referencing historical models like the italian Rotunda or the french Bastarda scripts, Kitsch tries to renew both its inspirations, finding a contemporary vibe in the dynamic texture of the calligraphic broad-nib pen applied to the proportions of the classical roman skeleton. The resulting high contrast and spiky details make Kitsch excel in display uses, while a fine-tuned text version manages to keep at small sizes the dynamic exp...
