Introduction

This Wiki-Page deals with summarizing experiences of some of the fonts available on:

                             http://unifraktur.sourceforge.net/maguntia.html [1]
                             http://www.peter-wiegel.de/MainzerFraktur.html  [2]
                             http://www.peter-wiegel.de/Leipzig.html         [3]

====Unifraktur.Maguntia [1]:==== You shall see both a German and an English language flag. The font is based on Peter Wiegel’s font "Berthold Mainzer Fraktur" [2]. For main differences see in [1] the chapter "About the Font". There you shall find links to manuals (with General Rules for Typesetting Fraktur) by Gerrit Ansmann too, written in antiqua as well as in fraktur. Interesting is a set of orthography rules and their changes over various centuries beginning in the 16th up to today.
