description: <p>Vollkorn came into being as my first type designing attempt. I \
  published the Regular in 2005 under a Creative-Commons-License. Until the \
  counter finally collapsed two years later it had been downloaded thousands \
  of times and used for web and print matters. It intends to be a quiet, \
  modest and well working text face for bread and butter use. Unlike its \
  examples in the book faces from the renaissance until today, it has dark and \
  meaty serifs and a bouncing and healthy look. It might be used as body type \
  as well as for headlines or titles. »Vollkorn« (pronounced »Follkorn«) is \
  German for »wholemeal« which refers to the old term »Brotschrift«. It stood \
  for the small fonts for every day use in hand setting times.</p>
