Dear All,

For those interested in the background of Lucida fonts, a new paper "Science and history behind the design of Lucida" by Bigelow & Holmes (the font designers) has just been published in the latest issue of TUGboat. It's at

https://www.tug.org/members/TUGboat/tb39-3/tb123bigelow-lucida.pdf

but only accessible to TUG's members at this time (it will become publicly available when the next issue is published, with expected date May 2019).

There's also a 2018 interview of Kris Holmes, available freely from TUG's Interview Corner at

http://tug.org/interviews/holmes.pdf

and complementing the earlier 2013 interview of Charles Bigelow at

http://tug.org/interviews/bigelow.pdf

Hope you will find them interesting (I sure did).

Bruno Voisin
