About Monotype Sabon® Semi Bold Expert OsF ...

Linotype usage sample for Monotype Sabon® Semi Bold Expert OsF
Designer: Jan Tschichold, 1967
Monotype Sabon® Semi Bold Expert OsF belongs to the Monotype Sabon® Font Family which is part of the Monotype Originals.
Sabon was designed by Jan Tschichold and released in 1967. Sabon was created in response to the specific needs of a group of German printers who wanted a typeface that would be identical in form when produced by three different metal-casting technologies. Named after Jacques Sabon, a sixteenth century typefounder whose widow married another typefounder, Konrad Berner, who is credited with issuing the first typefounder's specimen sheet. Several types on the sheet were attributed to Claude Garamond, and one of these served Tschichold as the source for Sabon roman. The italic was based on another face on Berner's sheet, cut by Robert Granjon. Tschichold's skillful adaptation of these old style faces has produced an elegant and workmanlike book face. The Sabon font family is a popular choice for setting text.
