Agilita™ is a new humanistic sanserif typeface designed by Jürgen Weltin. The mulitilingual OpenType font family has rather classical proportions, to give it more distinct word shapes through clear descenders and ascenders.

The classical approach of Agilita makes it a versatile typeface for largescale textsetting but it can also be used in complex information design [...]

Formes pures, classicisme et simplicité : la famille Aeonis signée Erik Faulhaber
Après Generis™, Aeonis™ est la deuxième grande famille de polices créée par Erik Faulhaber. La lettre grecque lapidaire créée au neuvième siècle avant JC a servi de modèle à la forme de base sans empattement d’Aeonis. La forme ouverte de la majuscule A est typique de cette fonte qui est souvent utilisée parce qu’elle est claire. Les courbes d’Aeonis s’inspirent d’un plafonnier conçu par le [...]

Al Harf Al Jadid is a traditional-style Arabic display typeface. Al Harf Al Jadid Two is an outline version of Al Harf Al Jadid One.

Al Harf Al Jadid One and Two are characterized by a distinctive, strong baseline-stroke, reminiscent of a similar [...]
Ahmed™ is a modern Arabic headline face, first produced by Linotype-Hell Ltd. in the early 1980s.
Originally developed as a simplified face, its design recalls the inscriptional and decorative tile work lettering of the medieval period. The strong treatment of the tails of certain characters departs from the more traditional style of tapering these finials, introducing a modern feel to the design.
The contrasting proportions of the tall vertical strokes and the rather elongated counters [...]

A breed of no-nonsense typefaces, called “Gothics” in the United States, have been serving as heavy hitters in financial services, business, and newspaper sectors since the late 19th Century. Gothic typefaces – not to be confused with Blackletter typefaces, which look “gothic” in a scary, medieval sort of way – are American sans serifs. Their forms are designed to solve [...]
The first drawings from Jürgen Weltin to be used for digitizing Agilita™ began early in 2000.

The Source of the OriginalsWell-known type foundries such as Mergenthaler, Linotype, D. Stempel AG, Haas'sche Schriftgießerei, Deberny & Peignot and others laid the foundations towards the Linotype Library becoming the most extensive collection of original fonts. The library contains world-famous classic fonts such as "Frutiger", "Garamond", "Helvetica", "Optima", "Palatino", "Sabon", "Syntax", "Univers" and "Zapfino", to name but a few. Linotype regards itself as a driving force for helping good font designs to success ¿ giving them the opportunity to become classics, even if they were not developed in-house. "Antique Olive" and "Eurostile" are prime examples of this policy.
The names of the most renowned type designers of the 20th and 21st century, e. g., Neville Brody, Matthew Carter, Adrian Frutiger, Hans-Eduard Meier, Gerard Unger and Prof. Hermann Zapf, represent the excellent quality of these typefaces. In addition, modern typefaces that provide a preview of tomorrow's trends offer you room for experimentation when you want to venture into new territories with unconventional designs. Like all Linotype Originals typefaces, they maintain the highest aesthetic and technical standards, backed by well over 100 years of premium typographical quality from Linotype.
