Federant revives the Reklameschrift typeface Feder Antiqua by Otto Ludwig
Nägele (1911). 
The main challenge of designing a modern interpretation was to balance between
applying visual corrections for overall consistency and staying close to the
original source. 
In certain cases the historical authenticy was sacrificed in favour of an even
typographic color.

This project required research of historic type specimens in search for the
missing letterforms. 
The unusual interpretation of the Yen currency symbol can be found in
typefaces of that period.

Designed by Olexa M.Volochay, Alexei Vanyashin for Cyreal.

Updated: February 2016 to Version 1.011, to correct the GPOS table (enabling
kerning, so the horizontal metrics may change, causing some reflow in Firefox
where kerning is used by default.)
