Using Herr Von Muellerhoff for monograms

The capitals are enormous and full of loops, which is exactly what a vine monogram wants; the lowercase is almost irrelevant here. It is also the hardest script in the tool to cut, so keep it at 4.5 inches or more in vinyl and 3 inches in embroidery.

About Herr Von Muellerhoff

Herr Von Muellerhoff is another of Alejandro Paul’s Bluemlein revivals for Sudtipos: an alphabet originally assembled by Charles Bluemlein from collected signatures, given an invented aristocratic name and published in Higgins Ink catalogues.

It is the most signature-like font here, with a very steep slant and long entry strokes. It reads best as two or three letters in a row, the way a signature would be written, rather than stacked.

Measured by us from herr-von-muellerhoff.ttf (weight 400) as served by Google Fonts, and from its METADATA.pb record in google/fonts. Stroke widths: the 26 capitals rasterised at 500 px cap height, stroke width = twice the distance from the centre line to the edge, tapered tips excluded.

Worked example: how small can a Herr Von Muellerhoff letter be cut?

Thin stroke = 0.014 x letter height. A 3 inch Herr Von Muellerhoff capital therefore has strokes down to 1.10 mm. Taking 1 mm as a cautious minimum for weeding adhesive vinyl: 0.014 x H = 1 mm gives H = 69.4 mm, or 2.73 in per letter (3.42 in for heat-transfer or glitter vinyl, about 25% more). Monograms shrink letters to fit frames and stacks, hence our 4.5 in overall minimum for Herr Von Muellerhoff.

Outline points: 1,998 across A to Z; M has 112, I only 45. A moderate outline that cuts at normal speed on any machine.

For names in the split and wedding styles, the file includes é ñ ø Ł ß, so names such as René, Muñoz, Søren set correctly, but it lacks ő ș ễ (as in Erdős or Ștefan); use a different text font for those names.

For the name in a split monogram or the date under a wedding monogram, pair Herr Von Muellerhoff with Cinzel; the tool’s “Text font” control sets it.
