Balloon fonts are hand written scripts that use a grid to show different types of text or images. The original balloon font was developed for display purposes, but today it is also used in signage and other advertising materials. It was first developed in 1939 by Max R. Kaufmann for American Type Foundry, Inc., in response to Howard Allen Trafton’s famous cartoon, cut into Light, Bold, and extra-bold typeface. Although, like many other sans serif types, balloons had its share of lovers and enemies, especially those who were from the design backgrounds of those days. The biggest complaint with balloons, after all, is that it does not distinguish between headings, subtitles, or curser and content.
For personal use, it can be used with any text-handwriting software without making any kind of corrections, unless such corrections are intended for the final printed document. For commercial use, it is advisable to get your hands on a good set of text correction software, like Adobe InDesign CS5, which provides tools that include built in justification and alignment tools, as well as italics and underline. With these tools in hand, you can correct all kinds of inconsistencies, including margins, headings, margins, and padding. You will be able to easily customize the appearance of your balloon fonts for better results, according to your needs.
Although there are some people who prefer to use default fonts that are part of the software package, like the Courier family, there are many who appreciate the uniqueness and creativity of a customized typeface. If you are in the market for custom designing, why not consider using a balloon font? It comes in a variety of weights, including regular, italic, or special, and its flexibility to adapt to any type of text makes it a great choice. You can have your balloons designed according to any theme you want, including current events, hobbies, professions, animals, and many more. Whatever you are promoting or doing, you can make sure that your message gets across effectively by using premium fonts.
