Gothic Tattoo Spire: size and readability
Compare the A and R at the actual intended size and background; the page shows all three configured steps on both backgrounds.
A and R across three sizes and two backgrounds
The same “AR” text appears at 16px, 24px and 48px on light and dark backgrounds.
The grid lets you inspect the narrow A apex and R’s diagonal lower leg at each of the three labeled settings. These are renderer examples, not a universal minimum-size claim.

The source of the blackletter term

About
About Gothic Tattoo Spire
Its x-height is 69.7% of the cap height, near the 69.7% typical of decorative fonts in the library. Ascenders on b, d, h, k and l line up with the capitals (101.9% of their height), and descenders on g, j, p, q and y drop 20.1% of the cap height below the baseline. The o is an upright oval, 0.49 times as wide as it is tall, and T is the widest capital, at 1.48 times the width of H. The O stops 4.6% of the cap height short of H and dips 1.1% below the baseline.
The letters stand upright, leaning less than 2.5° either way.
Its 148 characters include 105 Latin letters, plus 43 figures, punctuation marks and symbols; 53 of the Latin letters are accented or special forms beyond A to Z. The word space measures 46% of the cap height, and the blank space either side of a lowercase letter takes up 21.9% of its width. The font carries no kerning, so spacing comes from each letter’s own side bearings. The figures have different widths, so columns of numbers set in Gothic Tattoo Spire will not line up exactly.
Measured from the version 0.1.3 font file. Comparisons are with the 1 published library fonts measured on November 4, 2026, 1 of them decorative fonts.
