Palatino Sans shows in its alphabets an interpretation of a type different from all the traditional sans serif faces of monotone strokes that are done with a ruler. Notice how the letters of Palatino Sans have elegant curved outlines, not as uniform and without sharp edges, to convey a more soft expression. The details of the stems can be seen especially in large sizes. Typical for all the Palatino alphabets are the open letter ‘P’, and the curved lower-case ‘l’ for a [...]

Palatino undressed – Sans and Sans Informal
Bad Homburg, 26 January, 2007. Palatino Sans recasts the mold. Migrating his classic typeface from a serif to sans, Hermann Zapf makes an epochal leap. He not only transforms the traditional letters of the famous Palatino™ typeface into the grotesque, but does it with a warmth that transcends the usual cool associations with a sans serif typeface. This synthesis of modern and classic styles leaves room for a bright openness, so the type strides [...]

About Palatino® Sans Informal Bold ...
Designer: Hermann Zapf / Akira Kobayashi, 1950
Palatino® Sans Informal Bold belongs to the Palatino® Sans Font Family which is part of the Linotype Originals.
Palatino Sans is a 21st Century sans serif typeface from the master German designer Hermann Zapf. Palatino Sans and Palatino Sans Informal was designed as part of a group of three font families: Palatino nova, Palatino Sans, and Palatino Sans Informal. Together these three families act as the fulfilment of Herman Zapf's original Palatino idea. Palatino, which was born as a metal typeface in 1950, proved to be one of the 20th Century's most popular designs. Not only is Palatino Sans Informal a completely new typeface, it is also a completely new interpretation of the entire sans serif genre. Its letterforms are curved, rounded, and soft, not hard and industrial. In comparison with Palatino Sans, Palatino Sans Informal offers eccentricities that are somewhat artistic and more individual looking. The fonts in the Palatino Sans Informal family include several OpenType features, such as an extended character set covering all Latin-based European languages, old style figures, small caps, fractions, ordinals, ligatures, alternates, and ornaments. Palatino Sans Informal can be mixed well with Palatino and Palatino Sans.
