## About Rouge Script

Rouge Script is a script typeface that started as copperplate-nib writing and was redrawn with the stroke endings of a brush script, which gives a formal structure a more relaxed finish. In the specimen the lowercase joins along the baseline with hairline connectors and fuller downstrokes, while the capitals open with curled entry loops and long flourishes. The slant is shallow for a script of this kind, a choice the official notes link to legibility and cleaner rendering on screens. The family is one Regular style with no bold and no variable axis. It holds 220 glyphs in the basic Latin subset, enough for English, French, Spanish, German and the Nordic languages. Sabrina Mariela Lopez designed it and Typesenses holds the copyright; the font is published under the SIL Open Font License 1.1.

## Where it works

- **Names on invitations**: Curled capitals followed by joined lowercase set a couple's or a host's name as the main line of a card.
- **Fashion and beauty titles**: Thin connectors and soft brush endings suit a magazine heading or a lookbook cover line set large.
- **Food and bakery branding**: A short product or shop name in the script reads as a signature on boxes, bags and window lettering.
- **Short phrases on screens**: The shallow slant keeps a two- or three-word heading readable on a web page banner.

## Things to know

- **One style**: Rouge Script has a single Regular weight and no italic or bold companion.
- **Capitals are for word starts**: In the specimen the row of capitals overlaps where flourishes meet; they are drawn to lead into lowercase, not to be set as all caps.
- **Basic Latin subset**: The font lists the Latin subset only, with 220 glyphs. There is no Latin Extended, Cyrillic or Greek set.
