Typographic Tip of the Month from Linotype’s Type Director Akira Kobayashi!
June 2006: “Apostrophes and Quotation Marks”
Which glyph is correct: the inch, the acute, or the apostrophe? – This feature describes the poper use of the pesky punctuation mark that signifies omission and forms the possessive (and sometimes plurals).

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to try to discern Jan Tschichold´s own wishes for the original Sabon, and to interpret the complexity of a design originally made in two versions for different systems.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.
