Bembo was created by Aldus Manutius and published by Adobe. Bembo includes 8 designs and household plan choices. p > Bembo was designed on typefaces cut by Francesco Griffo for Aldus Manutius' printing of De Aetna in 1495 in Venice, a book by classicist Pietro Bembo about his see to Mount Etna. Griffo's style is considered among the very first of the old design typefaces, that include Garamond, that were used as staple text key ins Europe for two hundred years.

Stanley Morison monitored the style of Bembo for the Monotype Corporation in 1929. Bembo is a fine text face because of its well-proportioned letterforms, practical serifs, and lack of peculiarities; the italic is modeled on the handwriting of the Renaissance scribe Giovanni Tagliente.

Books and other texts embeded in Bembo can encompass a big variety of topics and formats because of its quiet classical beauty and its high readability.
