In the English speaking world, Blackletter is considered especially formal, no not much in German speaking countries, for they used it extensively before the Hitler era.
I don't know how to post bitmap, and that policy has not applied on any other forums on which I have posted.
That said, Moyenage is a nice example of how someone is reworking the Blackletter letterform into something much more legible than, say, 300 years ago.[/QUOTE]
I find all Blackletter fonts quite easy to read.
A sample of text taken from my previous post due to a glitch:
Jonothan Barnbrook has no plans to add Cyrillic characters to his "Bastard" blackletter, as adding new characters would be a considerable piece of work and his font is not a big seller. But I wonder whether it would get more attention of he added Cyrillic characters.
