- This font was designed on a Macintosh using the Fontographer v3.5
- font editing utility by Altsys in Dallas. The font was originally
- designed for Macintosh PostScript printers and was ported over for
- the IBM using both Fontographer [for the IBM PostScript] and Chris
- Reed's TrueType Converter v1.1 [for the TrueType].

- <H3>About the Typeface:</H3>
- Angelic is a script that dates back to the 12th century and was used
- by magicians for encrypting their "books of shadows" or grimoires.
- It is similar but not identical to other scripts such as "Melachim"
- and "Passing the River". I used the specimen given in the Francis
- Barrett book "The Magus" as a model for the design and only a few
- liberties have been taken with its alphabetic order or design.
- "The Magus" is readily available for inspection should the more
- curious wish to compare my design with his.
