    MFC Baelon Monogram Guidebook


    The source of inspiration for Baelon Monogram is an alphabet set from the book, “Monograms and Alphabets for Combination” by Dollfus
    Mieg & Cie, first published in the 1890’s.

    Baelon Monogram utilizes OpenType features that enable you to create more complex monograms, so what began originally as two sets of
    26 roman letters grew to an astounding 734+ character font in order to create a unique interwoven monogram effect!

    Baelon Monogram Basic Styles


    Baelon Monogram supports one, two, or three letter monograms by interchanging the wide stumped Capitals and the tall narrow Capitals (in the
    lowercase positions) together. (NOTE: the OpenType Ligature feature should be turned off to properly mix cases.)

    Type any capital letter
    or lowercase letter
    Type any two capital
    or lowercase letters
    Type any CAP-lowercase-CAP, or lowercase-CAP-
    lowercase combination of letters

    Baelon Monogram Unique Interwoven Format


    Baelon Monogram is also capable of a unique, two letter interwoven monogram style. This intertwined monogram requires the Ligature
    feature, available in most OpenType savvy applications, such as Adobe Illustrator CS (see Fig. 1). Just type any lowercase letter followed
    immediately by a Capital letter and the combined monogram will appear. (NOTE: some letterforms are modified to create proper
    intertwined monograms)

    Baelon Monogram Titling and Stylistic Alternates


    Baelon Monogram can also be used as a titling font when typed as all Capitals or all Lowercase. There are also a handful of alternate letters
    that can be accessed via the OpenType palette in OpenType savvy applications such as Adobe Illustrator CS (see Fig. 2).
