Lucasfilm does own the Lightsaber copyright. This flies in the face of previous films which used Univers for the title to establish a sense of importance and gravity, while using News Gothic for the crawl text. The new Star Wars films use a version of News Gothic for the title of each film and for the crawl text itself.
Without Young Jedi, Star war collections look incomplete.įor instance, Yves Peters spotted the return of ITC Serif Gothic, a typeface used for the “A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away…” tagline as well as the credits on the 70s poster. Galaxies and stars have long signified the epic series, right font to use for projects. You cannot recreate it because it is instantly recognizable as Star Wars and someone else has reserved the right to do business with that name/logo.Ĭalibri has been the default font for all things Microsoft since 2007, when it stepped in to replace Times New Roman across Microsoft Office. This is a registered trademark of the Star Wars logo.
