Diego de Rebolledo served as governor of Spanish Florida between 1654 and 1659. A controversial figure, Rebolledo’s governorship was dominated by scandal, political infighting, and accusations of corruption and abuse. This font is inspired by one of the many reports Rebolledo sent to Spain to win royal favor. In it, he denies any wrongdoing, claiming that his accusers invented stories to discredit him and challenge his authority. 
  
In his report, dated May 25, 1658, Rebolledo complains that he is “gravely offended” by the unfair accusations leveled against him, adding that the true achievements of his governorship have never reached His Majesty’s ears. Hmmmm…. 

 

Thanks so much for purchasing a font and supporting La Florida! The process for installing fonts depends on a number of factors, including what type of computer you have. If you own a PC, installation will depend on the version you are using. YouTube has some great videos for how to install new fonts to a variety of PCs. If you are using a Mac computer, we recommend this short video. YouTube is also a great resource if you are using any other computer, such as a Google Chromebook.

The letters used to create these unique fonts varied widely, and the spacing for many of them extended beyond one or two lines. In order to see the letters fully, we recommend that you set your spacing to double when writing in one of our fonts. 

Thank you for your support and we hope you enjoy your font!
