字体介绍
很少有字体能像Caslon字体那样经久不衰、成功而知名。英国首位杰出的字体创建者William Caslon最著名的设计，Caslon被归类为荷兰老式设计。它有250多年的历史，也是最古老的一种字体，其原始金属基体至今仍在使用。经过彻底的研究和试验开发， Edward Benguiat创建了ITC Caslon 224，以满足现代印刷使用的要求。他还设计了一整套协调的字重和风格，这在Caslon的早期版本中并不总是能够做到的。他的努力的结果是一个易于阅读的字体，具有一个大的x-高度，平滑的字重过渡，和细致的结构的发际线笔触。为什么是224号?这是东45街的一个地址，Benguiat的大部分工作都是在这里完成的。ITC Caslon 224家族有Book、Medium、Bold和 Black字重，每一种都有相应的斜体。<br><br>
Few typefaces have enjoyed the longevity, success and prominence of Caslon. The most famous design of William Caslon, England’s first great typefounder, Caslon is classified as a Dutch Old Style design. More than 250 years old, it is also the oldest typeface for which the original metal matrices are still available. After exhaustive study and trial development, Edward Benguiat created ITC Caslon 224 to meet the requirements of modern typographic usage. He also designed a complete family of coordinated weights and styles, which was not always done with previous versions of Caslon. The result of his efforts is a highly-readable typface, featuring a large x-height, smooth weight transitions, and careful structuring of hairline strokes. And why the 224 designation? That was the address on East 45th Street where Benguiat did most of his work. ITC Caslon 224 is available in book, medium, bold and black weights, each with a matching italic.
