字体介绍
这款字体由Hermann Zapf为D. Stempel AG而设计,最初是打算作为他设计的Palatino字体家族的book或text粗细字体。1954年,这款字体却以Aldus的名称被单独发布。Aldus的特点是比Palatino更细更窄,这使得它成为书籍排版的理想选择,不过,Palatino也非常受欢迎。除了常见的book粗细外,Aldus还有其自己的斜体,小型大写字母及老式数字体。这款字体是以15世纪威尼斯印刷商及出版商Aldus Manutius的名字命名的。

Neuzeit Grotesk was originally designed by Wilhelm Pischner (1904-1989) and was released by the font foundry D. Stempel in 1928-1939. In 1970, the German Standards Committee advised the standard use of Neuzeit-Grotesk for official signage and traffic directional systems, and the abbreviation DIN was added to the name of the font. DIN" stands for Deutsches Institut für Normung (The German Institute for Industrial Standards). Neuzeit Grotesk was also once the standard in the German printing industry. It has been seen as a straightforward and utilitarian typeface, with no unusual or distracting features. Like other typefaces from the 1920s, it reflects the philosophy of those times, "Form is Function." Today, however, because of its familiarity and practicality, DIN Neuzeit™ Grotesk has acquired an almost cheerful and reassuring aura. Try it out for signage, magazine headlines, or flyers.
