The refreshed logo introduces a new typeface and the word Cheltenham now has greater prominence. The angular ‘anvil’ shape has been softened and given a turned-up corner that evokes a turning page, an unfurling banner, an arrow to the future... The Cheltenham Festivals brand banner consists of the word ‘Cheltenham’ above Corporate brand banner the ‘unfurling banner’ device. The brand The Basics banner has a Corporate version – the livery for the overall Festivals organisation, and Individual Festival versions – which are used for the four respective Festivals.

Coueignoux Submitted to the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science on May the 23rd, 1975, in partial fulfill- ment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy. ABSTRACT Three contributions are made to the generation of Roman printed fonts: a descriptive model, a generating program, CSD, and a line setting program, FRANCE. The model is based on a linguistic study of the con- sistency of Roman printed characters. Characters are de- composed into primitives. To represent a letter by a char- acter, one uses a specific combination of primitives; a grammar is given, which governs these combinations within the Roman style. The repeated use of the same drawing to represent a primitive in more than one combination differ- entiates the characters of a font from other fonts; further- more, parameters are used to specify the drawings and there exist relationships among the parameters for the different drawings of a font. Related parameters are gathered into families; global transformations for each of the families well describe elementary operations on fonts like boldening, size variations, etc.

  • History of Moveable Type
    History of Moveable Type Johannes Gutenberg invented Moveable Type and the Printing Press in Germany in 1440. Moveable Type was first made of wood and replaced by metal. Example of moveable type being set. Fonts were Type set on a printing press. organized in wooden “job cases” by Typeface, Caps and Lower Case, and Point Size. Typography Terms Glyphs – letters (A,a,B,b,C,c) Typeface – The aesthetic design of an alphabet. Helvetica, Didot, Times New Roman Type Family – The range of variations and point size available within one Typeface. Font (Font Face) – The traditional term for the complete set of a typeface as it relates to one point size (Font Face: Helvetica, 10 pt). This would include upper and lower case glyphs, small capitals, bold and italic. After the introduction of the computer, the word Font is now used synonymously with the word Typeface, i.e. “What font are you using? Helvetica!” Weight – the weight of a typeface is determined by the thickness of the character outlines relative to their height (Hairline, Thin, Ultra-light, Extra-light, Light, Book, Regular, Roman, Medium, Demi-bold, Semi-bold, Bold, Extra-bold, Heavy, Black, Extra-black, Ultra-black). Point Size – the size of the typeface (12pt, 14pt, 18pt). Points are the standard until of typographic measurement. 12 points = 1 pica, 6 picas = 72 points = 1 inch. (Example right) A general rule is that body copy should never go below 10pt and captions should never be less than 8pt. Leading – or line spacing is the spacing between lines of type. In metal type composition, actual pieces of lead were inserted between lines of type on the printing press to create line spacing.

  • Franklin Gothic: from Benton to Berlow
    NUMBER TWO Franklin Gothic: from Benton to Berlow Sans serif, or gothic, typefaces became popular for advertising and promotional work in 19th century America. Their bold letterforms, brassy characteristics and efficient use of space were sought after then, just as they are now. By the time American Type Founders (ATF) was formed in 1892, more than 50 different sans serif faces were offered by the major American type suppliers. First Franklin Designs The Franklin Gothic™ typeface was the third in a series of sans serif faces designed after ATF was founded. In the early 1900s, Morris Fuller Benton, who was in charge of typeface development for ATF at the time, began to create the type designs that would influence American type design for more than 40 years. Globe Gothic was his first sans serif design, which was followed shortly thereafter by Alternate Gothic. Around 1902, Franklin Gothic was cut, although it was not released as a font of metal type until 1905. As he designed Franklin Gothic, Benton was likely influenced by the earlier sans serif designs released in Germany. Berthold had issued the Akzidenz Grotesk® series of typefaces (later known to American printers as “Standard”) in 1898. Akzidenz Grotesk inspired the cutting of Reform Grotesk by the Stempel foundry of Frankfurt in 1903, and the Venus™ series of typefaces by the Bauer foundry, also of Frankfurt, in 1907. A Small Family At first, Benton drew only a single roman design for Franklin Gothic. However, this typeface caught the imagination of printers of the time, and ATF was compelled to add more variants to make a small type family.

  • Bookmania Specimen
    A Fresh Revival of an Old Classic from Mark SimonSon Studio Light Light Italic Regular Regular Italic Semibold Semibold Italic Bold Bold Italic Black Black Italic &Bookmania One might wOnder: Why bother? Bookman has had its day. It’s a has-been. Some might argue that it’s no great loss. But I believe it’s a typographical gem that’s never been properly revived. itC’s redesign in the Seventies took it so far from its roots that it should have been called something else. But that’s the “Bookman” we’ve been stuck with—like it or not—for a long time. The original, for the most part, has been lost to us. My aim was to go back to the earlier Bookmans and make a typeface that would restore the dignity (as well as frivolity) that was lost. As with any revival, it’s an interpretation. I’ve leaned heavily toward the more refined look of the display sizes of the older Bookmans. Nevertheless, it also works well for text, although the effect is different than the old Bookmans at smaller sizes. (I hope to do a Bookmania Text someday that has the look and feel of the old text sizes.) I tried to picture what AtF’s Morris Fuller Benton would have done if he had developed Bookman Oldstyle the way he did Cheltenham Oldstyle. Bookman Oldstyle (and most later Bookmans) had a certain unpolished look. There is some charm to this, but I wanted to see the same fit and finish that Benton gave to his Cheltenham and Century faces.
