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。<br>
Designed by Hermann Zapf for D. Stempel AG, this typeface was originally intended to be the book or text weight for his Palatino font family. It was instead released as a separate face with the name Aldus in 1954. Aldus has the distinction of being lighter and narrower than Palatino, which makes it a good choice for book typography, though Palatino has also gained popularity as a text face. In addition to the regular book weight, Aldus has its own beautiful italic, small caps, and Old style figures. The typeface is named for the fifteenth-century Venetian printer and publisher, Aldus Manutius."
