The namesake of that typeface was equally as popular as the typeface is now when he was around. Starting out as an apprentice punch cutter Claude Garamond 2 quickly made a name for himself in the typography industry. Even though the typeface named for Claude Garamond is not actually based on a design of his own it shows how much of an influence he was. He has his typefaces, typefaces named after him and typeface based on his original typefaces. As a major influence during the 16th century and continued influence all the way to today Claude Garamond has had a major influence in typography and design. Claude Garamond was born in Paris, France around 1480 or 1490. Rather quickly Garamond entered the industry of typography. He started out as an apprentice punch cutter and printer. Working for Antoine Augereau he specialized in type design as well as punching cutting and printing.

    PHASE 3: Year 8 Typography Work from home tasks: Task: What is typography? – double research page Typography Task 1: Definitions: What is typography? • Typography is the art and technique of arranging type to make written language legible, readable, and appealing when displayed. The arrangement Complete a title of type involves selecting typefaces, point size, line length, line-spacing page/research page over (leading), letter-spacing (tracking), and adjusting the space within letters pairs a double page (kerning).

Such a person • History of typography might design a font, or define the point size, kerning, and other characteristics • Facts about typography of a typeface • Categories of typography Decorate the page using typography and colour Typography timeline: 1400’s: Guttenberg invented movable typefaces, giving the world a cheaper way to obtain the written word. Up until this point, all written materials were done by hand, and were very costly to purchase. Guttenburg also created the first typeface, blackletter – it was dark, fairly practical, and intense, but not very legible. 1501: Aldus Manutius created italics – a way to fit more words onto a page, saving the printer money. Today, we use italics as a design detail or for emphasis when writing. 1757: John Baskerville created what we now call Transitional type, a Roman-style type, with very sharp serifs and lots of drastic contrast between thick and thin lines. 1816 William Caslon IV created the first typeface without any serifs at all.

    x Garamond & His Famous Types HENRY LEWIS BULLEN Ahistor y very interesting to all who may be benefited through the use of printing. t is a par t of the glory of French artthat two type designs that areadmittedly masterpieces beyond competition werecreated byFrench- men. These creations havehad a decisiveinflu- ence on subsequent type designers, and though four hundred and fifty years havepassed since the first use of one of these designs, and three hundred and seventy- fivesince the first use of the other,both of them in their original models arenow morepopular and moregenerally used than in any previous period. The earliest of these master designers was Nicolas Jenson, who first used his famous Roman types in Venice in 1470.But we are heremoreconcerned with the second master,Claude Gara- mond of Paris, in whose honor this book is issued and in reproduc- tions of whose famous Roman and Italic type designs it is composed, that those who read herein may better understand their merits. Original steel punches and copper matrices made and used by Garamond, some time beforehis death in 1561,are now the proper ty of the French nation, and areincluded as an item in the great asset of the national arts which French governments, whether royal, imperial or republican in form, haveinvariably honoured and protected. These implements and the types cast bymeans of them arekept in a special ‘Garamond & His Famous Types’ was originally published in An Exhibit of Garamond Type with Appropriate Ornaments.

  • Adobe Font Folio Opentype Edition 2003
    Adobe Font Folio OpenType Edition 2003 The Adobe Folio 9.0 containing PostScript Type 1 fonts was replaced in 2003 by the Adobe Folio OpenType Edition ("Adobe Folio 10") containing 486 OpenType font families totaling 2209 font styles (regular, bold, italic, etc.). Adobe no longer sells PostScript Type 1 fonts and now sells OpenType fonts. OpenType fonts permit of encrypting and embedding hidden private buyer data (postal address, email address, bank account number, credit card number etc.). Embedding of your private data is now also customary with old PS Type 1 fonts, but here you can detect more easily your hidden private data. For an example of embedded private data see http://www.sanskritweb.net/forgers/lino17.pdf showing both encrypted and unencrypted private data. If you are connected to the internet, it is easy for online shops to spy out your private data by reading the fonts installed on your computer. In this way, Adobe and other online shops also obtain email addresses for spamming purposes. Therefore it is recommended to avoid buying fonts from Adobe, Linotype, Monotype etc., if you use a computer that is connected to the internet. See also Prof. Luc Devroye's notes on Adobe Store Security Breach spam emails at this site http://cgm.cs.mcgill.ca/~luc/legal.html Note 1: 80% of the fonts contained in the "Adobe" FontFolio CD are non-Adobe fonts by ITC, Linotype, and others. Note 2: Most of these "Adobe" fonts do not permit of "editing embedding" so that these fonts are practically useless. Despite these serious disadvantages, the Adobe Folio OpenType Edition retails presently (March 2005) at US$8,999.00.

  • The Impact of the Historical Development of Typography on Modern Classification of Typefaces
    M. Tomiša et al. Utjecaj povijesnog razvoja tipografije na suvremenu klasifikaciju pisama ISSN 1330-3651 (Print), ISSN 1848-6339 (Online) UDC/UDK 655.26:003.2 THE IMPACT OF THE HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT OF TYPOGRAPHY ON MODERN CLASSIFICATION OF TYPEFACES Mario Tomiša, Damir Vusić, Marin Milković Original scientific paper One of the definitions of typography is that it is the art of arranging typefaces for a specific project and their arrangement in order to achieve a more effective communication. In order to choose the appropriate typeface, the user should be well-acquainted with visual or geometric features of typography, typographic rules and the historical development of typography. Additionally, every user is further assisted by a good quality and simple typeface classification. There are many different classifications of typefaces based on historical or visual criteria, as well as their combination. During the last thirty years, computers and digital technology have enabled brand new creative freedoms. As a result, there are thousands of fonts and dozens of applications for digitally creating typefaces. This paper suggests an innovative, simpler classification, which should correspond to the contemporary development of typography, the production of a vast number of new typefaces and the needs of today's users.
