Author Notes:
Compose like the originator of the diesel engine – an attainable feat through the Diesel Rudolf Script, meticulously crafted to emulate the authentic penmanship of Rudolf Diesel himself. Rudolf Diesel, the pioneering engineer and inventor, came into the world in the vibrant city of Paris in 1858. His formative years were marked by schooling in the same city. However, in 1870, his family relocated to England, and Rudolf found himself in Augsburg, where he continued his educational journey. Following the completion of his studies in Munich, he commenced his career as an engineer at the Linde machine factory. This phase of his life offers insight into why Rudolf Diesel's handwriting exhibited a distinctive "jerky," hesitant, and inconsistent quality. Rudolf Diesel initially acquired his penmanship skills according to the French style, specifically Latin cursive, which was vastly dissimilar from the precise and tidy German handwriting conventions of that era. This transformation occurred when he was 13 years old. Consequently, his script appeared somewhat disorderly, particularly when viewed through the lens of that time, as it melded various letter forms within a single text, and sometimes even within individual words. Furthermore, it was evident that he did not place great emphasis on the aesthetics of his writing. His characters oscillated between wide and narrow, alternated between being large and distinct to cramped and rudimentary. This distinctive quality bore witness to his individuality, shaped by the influence of quill and ink. At ingoFonts, all font styles are available for download, absolutely free of charge.
