Helvetica DVD extra: Zapf on his work, Univers, Helvetica, and coffee...

Thought I’d upload the Hermann Zapf extra (it’s actually two clips combined, five minutes total). 39 more clips like this on the DVD.

It’s a quick and dirty Quicktime encode, obviously the DVD version is big and beautiful. Look for the Nadine Chahine cameo as they work on Arabic Palatino.

That interview was awesome.

We were at Linotype in Bad Homburg for the day, to dig around in their archives and interview Bruno Steinert and Otmar Hoefer. When we showed up, they told us, “Hermann Zapf happens to be here today.&#8221
