The Story Behind Allegory Font: A Designer’s Dream Come True
I still remember the day I created United Scripts, a font that produced the full hand-lettered name of a U.S. state with every keystroke. It was a fun experiment, and the response was overwhelming. Designers and crafters alike were thrilled with the unique output, but soon, I started getting asked if I had a font that featured the same style of lettering, or if I was planning to create one. At the time, my answer was “not yet” and “maybe.” Fast forward to today, and I’m excited to introduce Allegory Font, a beautiful script font that brings the same style and bounce to your designs.

What Makes Allegory Font Special?
Allegory Font is built with the same brush as United Scripts, offering a fun and playful base alphabet. But that’s not all – I’ve also added over 65 ligatures and over 100 alternate letters to give your designs variety and flourish. With PUA encoding, accessing these features is a breeze. Here are some of the key features:
- ✨ Over 65 ligature sets for smooth letter connections (coded to standard ligatures)
- ✨ Over 100 alternates for variety (coded to stylistic set 01 through stylistic set 10)
- ✅ PUA-encoded for easy access
