| Description |
English: Two takes on Baskerville. Baskerville Old Face at top, digitised by URW, is more appropriate for titles and headings, with much more contrast. Its thin strokes are very thin and its serif endings stretch to sharp points. The other, from Berthold, is created for body text, and its thin strokes are still not too thin. (Baskerville Old Face is actually based on an eighteenth-century imitation of Baskerville cut in Bristol, which used a slightly different style of letter a at large print size.) |
