Adobe Jenson is an old style serif typeface drawn for Adobe Systems by type designer Robert Slimbach. Its Roman styles are based on a Venetian oldstyle text face cut by Nicolas Jenson in 1470, and its italics are based on those by Ludovico Vicentino degli Arrighi. The result is an organic, somewhat idiosyncratic font, with a low x-height, and inconsistencies that help differentiate letters to make it a highly readable typeface appropriate for large amounts of text. Adobe Jenson was first released in 1996 as a multiple master Postscript font, and is now sold as an OpenType font under the name Adobe Jenson Pro. The multiple master version included weight and optical size axes. Wikipedia [ - ]
