This household was developed motivated from the popular Baskerville Roman and Italic typefaces created by John Baskerville, the English typeface designer. We were influenced from the original family sent by Baskerville's partner after he was death. The Baskerville's full collection was bought by the French editor and author Pierre-Augustin Caron de Beaumarchais who utilized it to print ó in swizerland ó for the first time the complete work of Voltaire (Finest known as the "Kehl edition" by the "Imprimerie de la sociÈtÈ littÈraire typographique"). We have actually used this edition, with exemplaries from 1785, to rebuild this genuine historical two styles. Fontfaces, kernings, spaces are scrupulously the like in the original. This Pro typeface is covering Western, Eastern and Central European languages (includind Celtic) and Turkish, with complete small caps set, standard and "s long" ligatures in each of the 2 styles.
