Is not a bad font when used as intended.


Some versions of the font also include the alternate glyphs, but since it was in the pre-opentype era, they are encoded on the less used slots (infinity, lozenge, etc...) and often ignored.
The E+F version has the alternates in a separate font.

Adobe, a long time ago, has issued a nicely designed promotional specimen of Trajan, Papirus and and third one, Herculanum or Lithos, if my memory is not failing me. The 3 typefaces where described as an "Collection of ancient revivals" or something similar...

I am wondering who made the Papyrus font. 


I know its credited to Gesselte corp and Microsoft, but are the actual dezinerz known to anybody reading this?
