The Solomon deco pack is created using ornamental work with organic forms, such as spiral or circular elements for the descender, ascender and also for the arc part of certain characters.

You can find both maximum and minimum variations, and that makes Solomon is great for headlines of all sizes or text blocks.

Use and combination of both groups - deco and text family to get unique effect results!

In Firefox 3.6+ browser, this font previewing can be enhanced for more, as you just need to drag and drop font in the @font-face box section (see the preview image marked with red square above).

I've tested these fonts: Junction, Myndraine, Quicksand using FontFriend, and I am quickly in love with Myndraine. Very nice font for any headings and paragraph texts :)

Check the detail to use the FontFriend or watch the demo video on the source page to learn more about it.
