| Designed by Jeff Levine, Merrymakers JNL is a display serif, monograms and novelty font family. This typeface has two styles and was published by Jeff Levine Fonts. |
A throwback design reminiscent of 1950s signage and print ads, Merrymakers JNL takes a previous release (Bluesman JNL) and places the letters and numbers inside parallelograms with ‘TV screen’ openings.
Merrymakers JNL is available in both regular and oblique versions.
The upper case A-Z characters have the taller side of the shape to the left, while the lower case a-z has the taller side to the right.
To make a ‘fan fold’ or zig-zag message, simply alternate upper and lower cases as in this example:
C-a-R
D-e-A-l-E-r-S
You can type spaces between words, but if you prefer blank connectors, use the following:
Upper case solid black connector – left bracket key
Lower case solid black connector – right bracket key
Upper case ‘TV screen’ connector – left brace key
Lower case ‘TV screen’ connector – right brace key
There is a very limited set of punctuation available. The upper case ampersand, question mark, exclamation point, period, comma, single quote and double quote are all on their respective key positions, but to accommodate the lower case [smaller side] versions, those glyphs have been reassigned to other standard keyboard positions:
Type @ to get &
Type # to get ?
Type $ to get !
Type ^ to get .
Type * to get ,
Type - to get ’
Type = to get ”
Additionally, to access the lower case [smaller side] versions of the numerals, type the following keys:
Type % to get 0
Type ( to get 1
Type ) to get 2
Type + to get 3
Type / to get 4
Type : to get 5
Type ; to get 6
Type
< to get 7
Type >
to get 8
Type \ to get 9
