Normally I wouldn't really consider using a "slab" serif for text but it seems to me that Nexus Mix is a very good one.
It's for a 30-some page guide, not sure what it'll be set in yet, but I suspect either 11 or 12.
Anyone ever used it (Mix) for text? I don't own it yet so I cannot try it and the serif out except for the specimens they provide on the 'net.
Thanks,
Pierre-Luc
It's a good looking typeface, but like a lot of postmodern slabs, it is so distinctive that it can interfere with readability... you see the typeface rather than the words... however, if you want a slab serif, it is one of the best
Have you printed the FF Nexus Mix PDFs, Pierre-Luc? I think it's quite readable at 10/12 or 12/14.
