About
Skillet is a bold vintage style serif font full of hedonism and joie de vivre. Skillet has strong character and extremely smooth features and self-confidence that springs from within. Skillet comes in two weights: Regular and Condensed. Even though the difference is small, Regular takes over the space while Condensed gives a more intimate impression.
Skillet comes with a wide range of OpenType -features. Keep Standard Ligatures on in normal use. Try Discretionary Ligatures, Swash, Stylistic or Titling Alternates for custom headlines or logos.
Skillet comes in two versions: Regular and Condensed. Both versions are OpenType fonts and have a wide variety of alternative characters. Fonts are PUA encoded and you can access the alternative characters with OpenType controls in any OpenType savvy program or manually from Character Window.

Please note, when you type with Skillet you normally get the standard versions of characters, otherwise the alternate characters would make a mess. To access the alternates you need to have an OpenType-savvy software or fetch them from the software's font controls: Check software specific instructions here: https://support.creativemarket.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037478813-Using-Fonts-with-Special-Features-OpenType-
If you're considering purchasing Skillet Typeface - please understand that when you type you get the standard versions of the letters. All the alternates are inside the font!

I love this font, it has the special characters that are shown in the images, and is very easy to use with Adobe Illustrator.
the image on website does not match font
Hi Katherine, All the specimen posters are made using only Skillet typeface. If you refer to the alternates used in the posters -then yes, you don't get them by just typing (if you refer to something else, please let me know what you mean). Normally alternate characters are hidden inside the font because you can't type with only the alternates, it would make a mess! The alternates are supposed to be used for spicing up and you need to activate them when you need them. I've also written this in the "About the product" -part. Please DM me for more instructions, thanks! This is getting confusing! As I'm scrolling the reviews I see 1-star reviews from people who apparently don't know how to operate with OpenTypeFonts (which is fine, that's why there are instructions), don't read any instructions I've provided and don't answer my messages / help offerings. Really bizarre. Anyway, I promise the font contains all the alternatives shown in the specimen posters and more. It's an OpenTypeFont (.otf) and you need to fetch the alternates from either Type / Glyphs -Window or with OpenType buttons etc. Different software have different ways and some illustration software for example don't support OpenType -features.
This is an awesome font — super easy to use! Ignore the bad reviews on this one — the people who say it's just a basic font just don't know how to use the font, haha. This font is great and has a lot of options for different ligatures and fun options to make it look really special! Super recommend.
