Junicode (short for Junius-Unicode) is a free Unicode font for mediaevalists, designed by Peter Baker. The roman characters are based on a typeface used by the Clarendon Press in the 17th century. It is very similar in style to typefaces of the 18th century such as Caslon. It includes characters used in European medieval texts, in the Unicode ranges:
