    Karl,
    Thanks for the link and the font.

    Gerrit,

    Notepad (on XP) clearly shows the tz ligature
    The ch ligature isn't as definitive, as you could
    fake it using kerning, but the z in the tz ligature
    does show a different tail.

    The way to get MS and others to support a
    writing style is to create lots and lots of data
    in it, and to get that data popular. :)

    So, the minute you have a Fraktur revival,
    you incrementally create pressure for vendors
    to support it. It helps if at least some browsers
    can support what you need, so you have a way
    to publish content.

    Cheers,

    A./
