For the usage of the type, it was firstly used by the Bible for Washbum College in 1973 by Bradbury Thompson who is an American graphic designer, and used by institutes for designing logos later on such as Standford University and Orebro University.

With its unique features supporting regular and display optical sizes in regular and italic fonts, it can be adjusted to use different optical sizes with different contrasts and details of stroke for optimizing letterforms for various applications. In addition, it is also extended to different series such as Minion Expert, and Minion Cyrillic.

One of the main features of the typeface is a visible contrast of thick and thin stroke.

by Giambattista Bodoni 1798

It is classified as modern, especially for Didone modern featuring in straight serifs without brackets, vertical parts of letterforms are thick, strong contrasts between thick and thin lines and overall geometric construction. The design of Bodoni was inspired by John Baskerville, the founder of Baskerville that is a printing typeface. Since it contains these features which are more obvious than what transitional has, these later designs are called modern and the earlier designers are called transitional. Meanwhile, the typeface is also revived as a series by American Type Founders such as italic, book, book italic, bold italic, and bold shaded.

by Justus Erich Walbaum 1804

Walbaum is a serif and didone typeface categorized in a group of the modern as one of the most important Neoclassical Antiqua font. It is designed in the early 1800s by Justus Erich Walbaum in Germany and released in 1804. The typeface design was inspired by other Modern Didone typefaces that had been created like Bodoni and Didot. It features extreme vertical stress, and fine hairlines contrasted with bold main strokes which make the typeface as one of the typical of Modern fonts. Besides, Walbaum contains various unique character quirks that make people to feel that the typeface is open, warm, and very graceful. Unlike other modern typefaces, Walbaum is regarded more as a German interpretation of classicism.

Chaparral is a digital typeface categorized in a group of the slab-serif as one of the typefaces for Adobe Systems. It is designed by Carol Twombly, a type designer in Adobe Systems and released in 1997. The design of the Chaparral is a combination of the legible slab serif designs, especially for the designs popularized in the 19th century with 16th century for the roman book lettering. As a result, the type is a versatile, hybrid slab serif design to become a unique addition to be a part of the Adobe typeface family. Unlike other geometric slab serif designs, it features varied letter proportions with a huge range of weight and styles such as old-style and lining figures, which make the typeface is surprisingly beautiful.

Helvetica

by Max Miedinger & Eduard Hoffmann 1957

Helvetica is a typeface classified to a group of sans-serif typefaces; the type is developed by Max Miedinger with Eduard Hoffmann in 1957 at Haas type foundry, in Switzerland. They create new sans-serif typefaces that are capable of competing with Akzidenz-Grotesk in the Swiss market, originally called Neue Haas Grotesk. With aiming at creating a neutral typeface having great clarity for the new design, there is no intrinsic meaning in its letterform which allows the typefaces could be used on a wide variety of signage. The typeface mainly features tall x-height, making it easier to read in smaller sizes with a series in history such as Helvetica Inserat created in 1957 and Helvetica Rounded created in 1978.

by Eric Gill 1926

Gill Sans is designed by Eric Gill in 1926 and released by Monotype in 1928. It is categorized in a group of the sans serif typefaces. It is inspired from Johnston, the another typeface created by Edward Johnston. At first, this typeface was originally designed for only uppercase letterforms, and added the lowercase characters back after a year of releasing. For its features, the alphabet of Gill Sans is more classical in proportion and contains well-known specialized elements such as a flared capital for R, and eye-glass lowercases for g, while the typeface is also a humanist sans serif with some geometric touches in its structures. Currently, Gill Sans can use to be represented as one of the widely-used typefaces in the world.
