ASTRO
gets its inspiration from one of the most popular space movies of all
time. Some letter combinations such as ST, LS, and ET result in connecting
lines. The special edition of Astro (version 5.0) takes into account
the evolution of this lettering style: capital letters feature the Classic
lettering of the 1977, 1980 and 1983 films, and lowercase letters feature
the updated letterforms from the Special Edition films in 1997/98.
This
typeface is inspired by existing designs with additional characters
designed and digitized by David Occhino. First appearing in 1996, Astro
SE was re-designed in June 2008.
