Ugaritic

 

Ugaritic cuneiform is an alphabetic form of cuneiform writing from ancient Ugarit. It would be excellent for any strange or ancient writing on some form of clay of tablets, or possibly chiseled into stone, and perhaps also bearing ancient treasure maps. Since Akkadian cuneiform, the more familiar version, is on a par with Egyptian hieroglyphs in complexity but harder to read, Ugaritic would make a suitable visual substitute for it in most game handouts. It would be a natural ancient writings about Mythos creatures, especially found on clay tablets in a museum exhibit. In a fantasy setting, it might be suitable for fantasy races such as dwarves. In addition, it would serve well for the alphabet of a low-tech alien species in a science fiction setting.

Ugaritic

This package contains four versions: Regular, a sharp-edeged form; Italic, an outline version; Bold, a rounded-edged form more closely resembling writing in damp clay; and Bold Italic, an outline version of Bold. There is also a manual giving some historical background information and a character map.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
