About Goudy Text CT Font

CastleType’s version of Goudy Text is based on drawings from which Frederic Goudy based his Goudy Text typeface. However, there is a big difference between his original drawings (in The Alphabet and Elements of Lettering) and the subsequent metal type version, and my version maintains the greater warmth (and irregularities) of the original drawings. Goudy’s Lombardy caps look especially nice when used as initial capitals with Goudy Text.
