Would anybody use a tri-tone font? That's what I'm wondering today.
The type specimen you see shows a family of three overlapping fonts. All three fonts were dervied from the same photographic image, and the weights have been created to emulate highlights, midtones and shadows. The fonts all have the same spacing, so they lay on top of each perfectly when you layer them.
Just set some type, copy it to two other layers, change the colors and change the fonts to the appropriate style and here's what you get. The fonts are displayed individually underneath.
And for a further surprise, look at how the "Highlights" version looks when you use it at small sizes. Whoa! The floweriness totally disappears and your left with a distressed industrial font.
