Author's note

Rio Oro by Neale Davidson of Pixel Sagas is a free Western display font with massive slab serifs, broad proportions, and the forceful silhouette of frontier poster lettering. Sharp notches cut a lively pattern through the heavy strokes.

Its carved, signboard-like forms can become part of saloon illustrations or period packaging, especially for barbecue sauces and craft drinks. The same theatrical structure suits rodeo posters, country music merchandise, and game graphics because each setting benefits from lettering that resembles a decorated storefront sign.

Rio Oro includes a full alphabet, small caps, accented characters, punctuation, and the euro symbol. It includes regular, bold, italic, and bold italic styles. Version 1.10.
