Download Sabon® Fonts by Linotype

Download Sabon® Fonts by Linotype In the early 1960s, the German Master Printers Association requested that a new typeface be designed and produced in identical form on both Linotype and Monotype machines so that text and technical composition would match. Walter Cunz at Stempel responded by commissioning Jan Tschichold to design a new version of Claude Garamonds serene and classical Roman. Its bold, and particularly its italic styles are limited by the requirements of Linotype casting machines, forcing the character widths of a given letter to match between styles, giving the italic its characteristic narrow f. The familys name is taken from Jacques Sabon, who introduced Garamonds Romans to Frankfurt. Sabon has long been a favorite of typographers for setting book text, due to its smooth texture , and in large part because Tschicholds book typography remains world famous.

Download ITC Charter® Fonts by ITC Charter was designed in the mid-1980s by Matthew Carter. The typeface was designed with the limitations of low- and middle-resolution output devices in mind; hence the squared off serifs and the economy of diagonals and curves. The design, however, became an instant success on its own merits. It is an excellent everyday typeface for a wide variety of uses including books and technical manuals. Charter offers small cap, extension and alternate typographer sets that help to make it more versatile and functional. ITC bought the Charter designs in 1993, but Bitstream retained the right to sell the original designs. Download ITC Charter® Fonts by ITC Download Now View Gallery
