And then you realise that everyone’s gone home, switched off the lights, locked up and your Christmas dinner is cold. Capelli who??

Oh that's one of those International paper sizes like A9 or whatever, I can only print 8.5 x 11....

I am always impressed by people who can work their way through anything written in secretary hand.

Do people still use Cappelli?

Good luck to anyone reading it without Cappelli to hand! Or the excellent online version https://www.adfontes.uzh.ch/en/ressourcen/abkuerzungen/cappelli-online

Absolutely -- and the Cappelli website provides massive extra help.
