True Crimes Unified

This font is based on the font True Crimes by the late Walter Velez (28 November 1939 - 24 August 2018).

Velez published it on his website in 2002 but he never really finished it (his version included only basic letters and numbers). Unfortunately the original site had disappeared and it seemed the font was never going to be finished so I decided to take care of if and I revised the font.

I added the whole "Latin-1 Supplement" and "Latin Extended A" and I tweaked all margins and glyphs. They are a bit more ballanced and smoother now (i.e. there are less points).

The upper case letters in the Unified version are redesigned to match the width of strokes of other characters.

This font is free for personal or non-commercial use and the same thing applies to the original font. In case you want to use the font for a commercial project please contact the estate of Walter Velez:
