Using Script Type in All CAPS

Sunday, January 27th, 2008

If I had a penny for every time I saw a word on a sign, in a menu, on a brochure (you get the idea) in script and all capitals I could sit around and write in this blog all day. Please, do not use a script lettering or any lettering that is close to a script in all capitals! Besides breaking a founding rule of good design, people can’t read it! If they can’t read it what good is it doing you or your business? You can capitalize the first letter of each word but just not every letter.

 Script Lettering in all capitals.
