Each highlighted letter may refer to a typeface family fact or a specified letter fact. So, may your eyes follow the enthusiastic and energetic alphabet as it spans across each page, revealing key points about each typeface. Quiz yourself on how well you can identify a typeface by using the front and back cover’s alphabet as a test!

centuries since its creation, Baskerville has remained one of the world’s most widely used typefaces. Baskerville was created for setting books, and its modern revivals are mainly suited to the setting of continuous text. Uses like Magazines, booklets, brochures and pamphlets are naturally seen. Its is also a very legible design, with a genial, attractive feel. More than merely easy to read, New Baskerville is inviting to the reader. The 1978 high-contrast, sparkly look of ITC New Baskerville is well-suited to longer texts and display uses.

This is a typeface designed for text applications, and therefore, close attention was paid to the relationships of the weights. Styles like Book and Medium are close to each other in weight, with larger jumps to the Bold and the Black, used for emphasis and contrast.

Although old style in nature they have less stress than some of the earlier faces of the genre. The Adobe Caslon font family was based on specimen pages printed by Caslon between 1734 and 1770. Adobe Caslon is of good use for text setting in books, magazines and also advertising. The Caslon of Carol Twombly appeared with Adobe in 1990. It is relatively true to the original Caslon, although Twombly’s interpretation is better suited to longer texts. Adobe Caslon, with its ligatures, old style figures and swash letters, makes an elegant and classic impression.

y z ? ! & :;�,. w x v p qrs tu It was expanded by Morris Fuller Benton and completed by Stan in 1975 with a larger x-height and improved italic details. This dramatically improved the aesthetics of the face. ITC Cheltenham is an example of a modern yet classic typeface. In its lighter weights a monotone look appears, while the bolder designs are rich and dark on the page. The original Cheltenham is classified as an old style serif typeface, and was designed in 1896 by Bertram Grosvenor Goodhue and Ingalls Kimball for use by a New York publisher. It is not based on a single historical model, and shows some influences of the Arts and Crafts Movement.

foundries, Nebiolo, in Turin. Eurostile was developed, because although the similar Microgramma came with a variety of weights, it only had capital letters. So, a decade after the creation of Microgramma, Novarese remade this with the creation of Eurostile, which added lower-case letters, a bold condensed variant and an ultra narrow design. This narrow design was referred to as Eurostile Compact, for a total of seven fonts. It has found some popularity in contemporary graphic design, as well as in science fiction novel and film artwork.

the airport the same year. Frutiger’s goal is to create a sans serif typeface with the rationality and cleanliness that Univers has, but to also use the organic aspects and proportions of Gill Sans. The result is that Frutiger is a distinctive and legible typeface. Frutiger’s simple and legible, yet warm and casual character has made it popular today in small print and advertising. Some major uses of Frutiger are in the corporate identity. The availability of many variants and weights as well as its excellent legibility make Frutiger a very versatile font. It can be used for any thing that needs a distinct and clean or modern look.

elements of the Bauhaus design style. At first, the radical new look was controversial and considered grotesque. The newness made an impression. The bold design has perfect geometric shapes with low contrast, even strokes. Volkswagen adopted this font and still uses it today. The unconventional strict geometric outlines make Futura identifiable.

ultimate legible sans-serif text face. Gill Sans was designed to function equally as well as a text face and for display. Success is due to each weight having a distinct character of its own. Gill Sans reflects Eric Gill’s craftsmanship ethos, even though the design was developed by “industrialized” methods. Gill Sans became popular when, in 1929, Cecil Dandridge commissioned Eric Gill to produce it for the London & North Eastern Railway. It has also been used for signs, advertising, and timetables. The face is known to be space-economical.

Helvetica Neue includes differences in alignment and the weights and widths are designed to work as one family. It also is part of an easy-to-use numbering system to identify various styles and weights.

It was also developed as a commission, in 1986, for a corporate font design for the German Federal Post, but was never adopted for usage. The FF Meta font was designed as a small point size typeface and is legible and sturdy enough to be readable from an angle. The FF Meta font works well on a postage stamp, but also as a display font for post boxes and vehicle signage. It is said to never mix the original six weight FF Meta with FF MetaPlus nor the new FF Meta family, because it has different spacing and kerning, and some newly redesigned characters.

related to contemporary Baskerville typefaces. Like Baskerville, Mrs Eaves also has a near vertical stress, departing from the old style model. The overall stroke weight of Mrs Eaves restores some of the feeling and design of letterpress printing’s unpredictability. It is named after Sarah Eaves, the woman who became John Baskerville’s wife. As Baskerville was setting up his printing and type business, Mrs. Eaves moved in with him as a live-in housekeeper, eventually becoming his wife after the death of her first husband, Mr. Eaves.

Linotype foundry. Palatino is named after 16th century, Italian master of calligraphy, Giambattista Palatino. Also, Palatino is based on the humanist typefaces of the great Italian Renaissance, which mirror the letters formed by a broad nib pen, giving a calligraphic grace appeal. However, the characteristics found within the Renaissance letters do differ from Hapf’s Palatino’s. With lighter strokes, Palatino has allowed for larger proportions, and is also considered much easier to read, becoming a popular text typeface to use. Within the typeface family a wide variety of weights and variations are available. Under the collaboration of Zapf and Akira Kobayashi the family was expanded.

The Rockwell family, first issued in 1933, is Monotype’s answer to this typographic style. Rockwell is an very robust design that evokes a feeling of straightforward honesty when set in a composition. A strong, adaptable display face is what Rockwell is welknown for.

be applied to many types of applications such as text, headlines, packaging, and signage. The legibility and variety of styles also make Univers flexible and easy to use. It is a very interesting alternative to Helvetica and is referred to as “The thinking man’s Helvetica”. Univers creates a more modern interface and makes for a more suitable body text. The Univers family is known to consist of a numerical system that includes assigned numbers, not names, for each type of variation of weight, width, and slope. This system is a technique also applied to the updated version of Univers. In 1997 Frutiger actually reworked the entire Univers family and named it Linotype Univers.
