Mallowmint Dash

Mallowmint Dash is an original groovy 1970s speed-lettering font: a bold, rounded, wide sans slanted 12° forward, with solid, easy-to-read letters. The speed effect is an accent: thin motion-line notches enter letters and digits from the right edge at two fixed heights, like the trailing lines of 70s racing graphics. They never cut through a letter or touch crossbars, arms, spines or bowl joins, and every glyph keeps at least 94% of its ink. At small sizes the notches fade out and the letters read as clean bold italics; at headline sizes the motion lines show. Great for posters, race-day and party invites, shirts, stickers, signs, labels and retro crafts. Version 2.000 replaces the first release, whose wide stripe cuts made the letters hard to read.

Font-only download: one ZIP with MallowmintDash-Regular.ttf, a true CFF OpenType .otf, .woff and .woff2, plus README and LICENSE. Six files total. One Regular style with selective kerning.

Character set: uppercase A–Z, lowercase a–z, digits 0–9, space and non-breaking space, and these 20 punctuation marks/symbols: . , ! ? ' " : ; - & @ # $ % ( ) / + = *. No accented letters, smart quotes, alternates or ligatures. Use straight quotes and apostrophes.

No texture or distress. The font has clean solid outlines; the motion notches are part of the letter shapes. Colours and the offset shadow on the listing image are presentation only.

Quality checked: every glyph was checked in all four formats for coverage, clean closed outlines, spacing, metrics and kerning, passed the OpenType Sanitizer and FontBakery (zero fails; the OTF has no warnings and the TTF's one warning is the expected contour-count note for the open % and @ designs), was checked for legibility on 24 px and 120 px word renders, and was rendered and reviewed large and at 12–24 px. Desktop installation, craft apps and physical production were not tested.
