About Racoste
This is the one we reach for when the request is 50s font. Racoste keeps it simple, which is why it sits here rather than in the reserve pile. It sits at 48 saves — too few to call it popular, which is exactly why it is worth a look before everyone else finds it. It stands at 5.0 out of 5 across 1 review, and we read the low scores first when there are any. The designer behind it is HansCo.
Type your own words in the preview box before you decide: script fonts look beautiful in the designer's sample and fall apart in all caps or with a double letter. If you want one use for it, take 60s font: that is the direction the designer clearly had in mind, and it is the one we would follow. Open it big before you commit. At thumbnail size every font on this shelf looks equally good, which is the problem with thumbnails.

How to use this font
- Download the font from Creative Fabrica and unzip it — you normally get OTF and TTF of the same face, plus a licence file.
- Install the OTF if your software gives you the choice: it carries the alternates and ligatures that make a script face look handwritten.
- Restart the app you design in — Canva, Photoshop, Cricut Design Space and Word all read the font list once, at launch.
- Read the licence before a paid job: personal and commercial use are priced apart, and a logo often needs the extended one.
