Master scribes were re- placed by master printers. This invention would last half a millennium before it, in turn, was pushed aside by photosetting, by information being transmitted at the speed of light. The end result, however, was still a printed letter on a page. Unfortunately a correspond- ingly fast improvement in human comprehension has not been forthcoming. The composi- tion of our brains is basically unchanged since the time of Adam & Eve. An a is an a, and always will be. At the threshold of this new era in printing technology, one name stood out: Adrian Frutiger. The measurer and standard-setter of all things typographic. In his 1951 diploma submission, Adrian Frutiger produced nine wooden panels on which he had engraved, letter by letter, examples of Western alphabets – from Greek inscriptional capitals to humanistic minuscules and cursives. It was already apparent in this work that he was a master of space, proportion and order. It was clear even then that his career path would be characterised by his passion for the criteria of legibility and the beauty of form. During his time in France, typefaces such as Méridien, Serifa, Iridium and Linotype Centennial were produced, typefaces that captured the zeitgeist, and which are still proving their worth today. Around the middle of the last century work began on the production of a typeface family with the name Univers. A system ordered and classified into 21 members was a totally new approach at the time. These 21 members would find their application in every area of use: from gracing posters to appearing on the smallest packaging leaflet. The first step in the generation of every printed product developed by a highly specialised profes- sion is the choice of a typeface and its design. As much for movable type as for photosetting and the compositor, this typeface is still the lynchpin at the end of those 500 years. It represents both the end of an era and the beginning of a new one. If survival down the ages is an important criterion for art, then this is also true for the art of typography. And it is all the more true for a typographic art that neither displays nor has need of modish showiness. With Adrian Frutiger there has always been a seamless transition between applied and fine art. The glyphs of his Indian typeface and of his logotypes have also been applied in his sculptures,

So why do they matter? Why are they vital for every company or employer? If you are also clueless right now, feel free to read my story — my proposal as to why cre- ating and finding the right typeface for your company is crucial for its success. Maybe you’ll be amazed, too. Get inspired and start reading now. Corporate Typefaces by Moritz Kleinsorge The two Levels of a Typeface Let’s begin with the basics. When we open a book, our brain does not imme- diately start to scan the words. Instead, it firstly perceives the image of the type. We see the typeface, but we do not yet read it. Although this distinction between perceiving and reading takes place within a few seconds, it may be the most crucial foundation for any work with type. The Dutch type design- er Gerard Unger (1942 – 2018) summarized this phenomena in one sentence: “It is almost impossible to look and read at the same time: they are different actions.“ 1 These two different actions of seeing and reading type illustrate two levels that are decisive for all fonts, but especially for corporate typefaces: the verbal, and the visual level.

  • 300 Additional Linotype Public Domain Fonts
    300 Additional Linotype Public Domain Fonts Compiled by Ulrich Stiehl, Heidelberg, May 2012 As of 1st January 2012, 300 additional Linotype fonts contained in the Linotype catalog of January 1986 "Lino Type Collection – Mergenthaler Type Library" entered the public domain. These additional fonts (font families) are emphasized in bold below. All the other fonts listed fell into the public domain earlier: The 1986 catalog contained 1700 fonts, the 1984 catalog 1400 fonts, and the 1982 catalog 1000 fonts. For these older fonts please read the main document http://www.sanskritweb.net/forgers/publicdomain.pdf and the subsequent document http://www.sanskritweb.net/forgers/publicdomain2.pdf. Some of the typefaces, e.g. the Linotype font family "Bryn Mawr", including eight font styles, seem to have vanished altogether. In the year 2012, most of the old ITC font families, marked below by "(ITC)", are now in public domain.

    Neue Haas Unica Neue Haas Unica by Monotype ‘...Univers with a heart, Helvetica with a soul’ Beatriz Cifuentes and Yoshiki Waterhouse Neue Haas Unica by Monotype Neue Haas Unica is the revival of a typeface that has attained almost mythical status in the type community. Released by the Haas Type Foundry in 1980, Unica was developed by Team 77 (André Gürtler, Christian Mengelt and Erich Gschwind) as a hybrid of two existing fonts: Univers and Helvetica. Neue Haas Unica by Monotype ‘Sheer Badassery’ Corey Holms Neue Haas Unica by Monotype By the late 1970s, designers had been working with these two hugely influential fonts for more than two decades. They knew the strengths, weaknesses and best uses of each. Haas identified a space between them for a font based on Helvetica but drawing on other sans-serif typefaces, most notably Univers – one more suited to the newly- established technology of phototypesetting. Neue Haas Unica by Monotype ‘More weights, more letters, more languages’ Toshi Omagari Neue Haas Unica by Monotype Unica hit the sweet spot. Understated, clean and elegant, it was warmer, less rigid and less mannered than Helvetica. But it found only limited success. Desktop publishing rendered phototypesetting obsolete and both Helvetica and Univers were updated for digital use. Unica was sidelined. The typographic love-child became the lost child. Until now. Neue Haas Unica by Monotype ‘The Holy Grail’ Stefanie Weigler Neue Haas Unica by Monotype Monotype’s Toshi Omagari has analysed Unica and given this neglected classic a fresh, digital lease of life, with an extended range of weights for print and on-screen, and multi-language support.

On one hot July day in Bratislava, Robert Kravjanszki cracked an inside joke at the opening meeting of the project team, saying that diacritics made texts printed in our languages look like they were swarmed by insects. In addition to having us helpless with laughter, this quirkily funny and perfectly fitting metaphor became an instant inspiration for the project’s name.
