Fonts Quinn Clark

The Harry Potter font is called hocus pocus. The font is associated with the popular book series written by J.K. Rowling. It is unclear how this font was chosen for the books and movies. However i believe it was chosen because it looks like Harry's scar in the book.

Bookman Old Face font was an old printing style used by Alexander Phemister. The font itself is simple and easy to read. I like it for that reason. I feel like it could be used to type an email or something small like that.

Edwardian Script is a basic font that looks almost like handwriting unlike other script fonts edwardian is meant to look like it was written with a pen rather then a brush, for this reason it is harsher and bolder which i like in this font.
