This typeface was digitized from an original letterpress font of “Element” originally published in the 1930s by the Bauer type foundry. The design was extended to include a complete Western (Win 1252/Mac Roman) and Central European character set.

The optional decorative caps are included as OpenType swash glyphs. In total, the font contains 462 glyphs.
