Fonts of Mystara\u2019s Maps<\/h2>\n

Over the decade and a half and more of Mystara\u2019s official publication, a large selection of fonts were chosen for use in the setting\u2019s maps. This appendix aims to catalogue and present examples of their use, for fun as well as for future reference.<\/p>\n

Note that only appearances of fonts on geographic maps \u2014 those within the scope of the Atlas of Mystara<\/em> \u2014 are taken into account here. Essentially, this is a map-focused version of my previous Mystara Font FAQ.<\/p>\n

Each font is presented as a plate, with the name and dates used in the top left; the products whose maps used the font in the top right; samples mostly drawn from actual usages in maps at the bottom left; and a short commentary at the bottom right.<\/p>\n

Fonts are presented in roughly chronological order of appearance.<\/p>\n
