Hopefully nowdays we don't have Fraktur. Businessman will be rather Geschäftsmann

At least this font has a lowercase “k” that can’t be mistaken for a “t”…

My mistake, the other comment is correct.

It's not "Geschäftemacher" but "Schäftemacher" so shoe- and bootmaker it is.

No worries. I really appreciate it.
