This revival comes in two extended versions with a complete Latin 1 character set: Elfen-Fraktur A uses the original blackletter skeletons and is suitable for setting texts with traditional German typesetting and orthography rules. Elfen-Fraktur B includes modernized letter designs for a broader and more legible use in various languages. A free bonus is the set of 22 border elements called Elfen-Schmuck.

»Recht ſo, kleiner Geſelle! Wohl geſprungen und tüchtig!« Aber in demſelben Augenblick, wo er dieſe Worte ausgeſprochen hatte, verfinſterte sich die Nacht und die Elfen verſchwanden mit Blitzesſchnelle.“Bravo! little fellow,” said he, “well kicked and strong.” But the instant he uttered the words the night was darkened, and the fairies vanished with the speed of lightning.
