Maximus - Man this thing is ugly. How did Tracy write the preeminent book of type critique?

Do slabs count?

Maximus: you’re ignoring what size it was meant to be used at...
Just like his Adsans; it’s not “pretty” - it’s brilliant.

I need to see it in print then.

Try
Vahika by Ray Larabie.
Midnight Kernboy (semi-serif by Sentinel)
Bodonitown by Manfred Klein.
and Plumbers Gothic by Harold Lohner with a more extravagant look.

Schönes Wochenende …

Melior is made from the Superellipse (superellipsis) formula/shape by Piet Hein http://www.2dcurves.com/power/powerse.html

Thank you all, a lot, for these fine suggestions, so far.
Yea, Stephen, I guess slabs would count as well.

Thanks,
Dav

Note: Piet Hein is not the originator of the Superellipse idea.

Other options: Scherzo (Albert Boton), Franklin-Antiqua or Vergil (Berthold).

Indeed not, read my previous link for more info on that.

domdib - why are all your links formatted like wiki links? I think you might be adding brackets unnecessarily.

Zapf Elliptical 711 yes, definitely.

Also, if you’ll consider a condensed design at all, Euphonia comes in Latin form (Euphonia Latin) as well as slab form (Euphonia Roman).

Midnight Kernboy is a bit unconventional in structure and rigid in appearance for general text use, but its short slabs help make it readable and I appreciate the suggestion :^)

Yes, sorry, the correct formatting wasn’t clear to me. I needed to read “More information...”
