In creating Sabon® Next, Jean François Porchez revived a revival. The original Sabon typeface, designed by Jan Tschichold was itself a contemporary revival of Claude Garamond’s 16th century types for the 1960s. With Sabon, Tschichold not only created one of the best Garamond revivals to date, he also built what you might term on of the first “system fonts.” Commissioned by a German book printers’ guild, Sabon was intended for use on Linotype machines, [...]

Claude Garamond Claude Garamond (ca. 1480–1561) cut types for the Parisian scholar-printer Robert Estienne in the first part of the sixteenth century, basing his romans on the types cut by Francesco Griffo for Venetian printer Aldus Manutius in 1495. Garamond refined his Romans in later versions, adding his own concepts as he developed his skills as a punchcutter. After his death in 1561, the Garamond punches made their way to the printing office of Christoph Plantin in Antwerp, where they [...]

About Sabon® Next CD for Mac OS and Windows ...

Designer: Jean François Porchez, 2002
The design of Sabon Next by Jean François Porchez, a revival of a revival, was a double challenge: to try to discern Jan Tschichold´s own wishes for the original Sabon, and to interpret the complexity of a design originally made in two versions for different systems. The first was designed for use on Linotype and Monotype systems. The second version of Sabon was designed for Stempel handsetting, and it seems closer to a pure interpretation of Garamond without many constraints. Naturally Porchez based Sabon Next on this second version and also referred to original Garamond models, carefully improving the proportions of the existing digital Sabon while matching its alignments. The new family includes 6 weights up to Black and its corresponding italics, small caps for most of the weights and oldstyle figures and one Ornament font. The standard versions include revised lining figures designed a little smaller than capitals. Sabon Next is a typeface family from the Platinum Collection. This series was created for the highest quality demanded by professional typography and includes complete families digitized using the newest technology, serving the specific needs of corporate design and similar projects.
