Ah, the Frankfurt font, crafted by the distinguished Alan Carr, not to be confused with the British comedian of the same name—though one could argue that Mr. Carr's creation brings its own form of visual comedy to the typographic stage. Picture this: a font that saunters into the room with an air of confidence, its letters donning geometric shapes and clean lines like a meticulously tailored suit, yet beneath its sleek appearance, it hides a playful wink.
Frankfurt stands out among the crowd, not just because of its creator's keen eye for design, but because it embodies a character that's both serious and fun. Think of it as the life of the design party, strutting through projects ranging from corporate brochures to quirky posters, never missing a beat. Its letters are like dancers - precise, elegant, but also ready to break into a spontaneous jig.
Its most defining feature has to be its distinctly modern flair, a tribute to the Bauhaus movement with a twist of twenty-first-century sensibility. Frankfurt doesn't just communicate; it conversates, bringing a lively dialogue to the page that engages readers with every word. It's as if each letter has its backstory, waiting to share it with you over a cup of coffee (or a pint, depending on the hour).
Despite its playful undertones, Frankfurt is a versatile font, adapting from the high-flying world of glossy magazines to the grassroots of indie zine culture with ease. It speaks in a clear, firm voice, but always with a smirk, reminding you that while design is to be taken seriously, one must never forget to smile. So, next time you encounter the Frankfurt font, tip your hat and enjoy the conversation.

my suitcase program says this font is corrupt.
It is usable under Windows. But as it is a font made by Fantazia (A. Carr) it has many imperfections which may make unusable on a Mac. With some luck another Mac user may read this and and give it a try to find out what the problem is. I only see that the version string is missing while it should be included but that, normally, should not cause a problem.
As said, many imperfections, 83 out of the total of 98 glyphs have problems:
