The biggest surprises accompanying Palatino nova´s release are the Palatino Sans and Palatino Sans Informal families. After almost 70 years designing some of the world´s most well-known serif and script typefaces, Hermann Zapf has applied his extensive knowledge to the sans serif genre. Like his landmark 1998 hit Zapfino™, the exceptionally original Palatino Sans and Palatino Sans Informal are a fresh contribution to typography. Their distinct approach is groundbreaking: unlike most sans serif [...]
2. Introduction
For more than half a century, Professor Hermann Zapf has been designing typefaces that have helped define how our world communicates. Now we are pleased to present his newest series of families, Palatino™ Sans and Palatino Sans Informal. An extension of the Palatino idea, which was first made manifest in 1950, these groundbreaking sans serif typefaces offer another interpretation of the sans serif genre. Whether set alone or used in combination with each other or the Palatino, Palatino [...]
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.

About Palatino® Sans Complete Family Value Pack ...
Designer: Hermann Zapf / Akira Kobayashi, 1950
Palatino® Sans Complete Family Value Pack belongs to the Palatino® Sans Font Family which is part of the Linotype Originals.
Palatino Sans Informal is a 21st Century sans serif typeface from the master German designer Hermann Zapf. Palatino Sans Informal and 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.
