Mandalorian (writing system)/Legends

For Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones a highly angular written form of Mandaloraian was developed by Philip Metschan at the request of George Lucas. This occured prior to 2002, long before the common perception that the written form of Mando'a was developed by Karen Traviss and Jesse Harlin, for the Republic Commando mulitmedia project. It was featured on displays within Jango's Slave I and is now heavily used throughout The Clone Wars animated series to denote written Mandalorian. This font type, erroneously named "Mandelorian" by Metschan, was developed in conjunction with "Star Wars '76" based upon an earlier Joe Johnston typeface used in Return of the Jedi as well as "Geonosian" typeface which can be seen woven into the Geonosian Death Star display screens throughout Episode II.
