Phoenix is an shareware typeface developed by Van Garrett.
The font is an adaptation of an art deco font called Phenix
American, optimized for use with LaserWriters. It is
especially good for display advertising, special headlines,
and U&lc large-point text blocks. Phoenix is compatible with
everything. It comes with ligatures and virtually all of the
standard 255 character set. Some of the Greek and less-used
math characters are omitted.
Give Phoenix to your friends and co-workers. Phoenix is
shareware, so feel free to give copies to your friends and
co-workers. Also feel free to give a copy to your service

Dynamo and Modern Woodcut, an original face, designed with an
Eastern European handcrafted feel to it. All three fonts will

$20. That's right, only $20. For three Postscript fonts, plus
the EPS files, plus the customizable Fontographer files, plus
well-designed, idea-packed sample documents, that's not that
