Um … I really like Minion Pro. I think it’s, like, the best font ever created. I think I got it with my InDesign CS2.
But I had a question …
How condensed is “Minion Pro Condensed” compared to just plain “Minion Pro.” (give me a percentage) I see “Minion Pro Condensed” a lot and I think it’s awesome. Plain Minion Pro is even more awesome.
15% maybe
Thanx Tiffany:
15% seems right on the mark. Possibly even 10%.
Any other ideas??
Why not lay out a block of, say, 10 lines of random text in each and measure each line with a printer's ruler (or a millimeter ruler), then compute the percentages from the differences in length? Kind of labor intensive, but you'd get a pretty accurate percentage I bet.
