They are the type of Italian chancery writing of the 16th and 17th century that is
mostly called Cancellaresca, and were developped out of a page of samples created
by the French writing master Louis Barbedor around 1650.
Both fonts are matching -- on my computer at least --, and you should therefore
have no difficulties in making your texts more swashed by selecting some letters
and having them displayed as the alternate glyphs.
As usual, there is no number sign in this font, and you'll find a long s in its
place. Despite the alternate font, there are still extras in the main font, e.g.
TagettesPlus contains neither figures nor punctuation marks, and its set of upper
case glyphs is identical with that of the main font. Its lower case letters are the
alternate ones. They are mostly swashed, but you'll find the simple f there, too,
and the regular g, as well as two less space-taking ys, one of them on the period
sign. As a last minute decision, I've added the simple g and the flourish that are
contained on the bar and broken bar sign of the main font. In TagettesPlus, you'll
find them on the comma and plus sign.
