About Orion™ Roman ...

Linotype usage sample for Orion™ Roman
Designer: Hermann Zapf, 1974
Orion™ Roman belongs to the Orion™ Font Family which is part of the Linotype Originals.
Hermann Zapf made his first scetches for Orion in 1963. Zapf's aim was to create a neutral textface which can be ideally used as a newspaper face. Its strokethickness and open letterforms also fits well for book and magazine production. The final two weights of Orion were released in 1974 for the Linofilm photocomposing machine.
