Frontier Font v2.0
Introduction
The Frontier typeface was originally used in the classic Frontier:Elite 2 & Frontier:First Encounters games produced by David Braben and Frontier Developments, though an early version of its style can be found in the Elite+ game.
In the summer of 2002 I decided to make a TrueType font based on this typeface which would allow me to utilise the Frontier style in my own websites. When I started the first version of the font I knew very little about font design and so that first version was created out of sheer luck and experimentation.
Not happy with the results, in the Autumn of the same year I embarked on version 2 with the goal of creating an exact replica of the Frontier typeface. Though perfection hasn't yet been achived it is very close and the grounding is now there for the font to become more exact with each new release.
The .zip archive you will find on this site contains a TrueType Font (TTF) and once installed on your computer can be used to create documents, images or web pages in the Frontier style.
