Opentype contextual fonts

Le Zapfino (Extra LT Pro (Contectual)) de Lynotype et le Bickham (Script Pro ) d'Adobe sont des typo contextuelles en openType.

Ces typos s'adaptent au contexte environnant (à la longueur de la phrase) et choisissent au fil de la rédaction les lettres les plus harmonieuses…
