at stanford and was interested in entering the field of typography he told zapf his idea of making a typeface with a large number of glyph variations and wanted to start with an example of zapf s calligraphy which had been reproduced in a publication of the society of typographic arts in chicago zapf was concerned that this was the wrong way to go and while he was interested in creating a complicated program he was worried about starting something new however zapf remembered a page of calligraphy from his sketchbook from 1944 and considered the possibility of making a typeface from it

using modern digital technology and so zapf and siegel began work on the complicated software necessary siegel also hired gino lee a programmer from boston massachusetts to work on the project however just before the project was completed siegel wrote a letter to zapf saying that his girlfriend had left him and that he had lost all interest in anything siegel abandoned the project and started a new
