About:
Noto Sans Old Italic is a Unicode-compliant font family designed to render ancient Italian scripts used between the 7th and 1st centuries BCE. It provides comprehensive glyphs for the Old Italic block, ensuring accurate digital representation of historical Etruscan, Oscan, and other early alphabets. This font is essential for academic and linguistic projects requiring precise typography of archaic European writing systems.
Key Features:
  • Complete Unicode coverage for the Old Italic block
  • Harmonized design within the extensive Noto font family
  • Optimized for high-resolution screen rendering and print
  • Open-source licensing for unrestricted use and modification
Use Cases:
  • Academic publications and digital humanities projects
  • Linguistic research and epigraphy documentation
  • Displaying historical inscriptions in web or print
Alternatives:
  • DejaVu Sans – A general-purpose font with broader coverage but less specific aesthetic tuning for Old Italic scripts.
  • Quivira – A Windows-compatible font that includes the characters but lacks the cohesive design of the Noto project.
