- Old English Font vs. the Old English Language: Why the Name Is Misleading: The font called Old English is really blackletter, a style that arrived centuries after the language. Here is what each term actually means.

- Gothic Lettering for Tattoos, Signs and Logos: Readability Checklist: Practical advice for using blackletter in a sign, logo or lettering design: avoid all caps, mind the spacing, check spelling, and print a stencil.
- How to Write Blackletter by Hand: Pen, Angle, Nib Widths and Practice: A starter guide to hand-lettered blackletter: why a broad-edge pen matters, how to hold it at an angle, measure height in nib widths and practice.
