For the last 4 years, I have actually been working on a revival of the timeless ATF Bookman Oldstyle and the Bookmans of the 1960s. However it's not a slavish replica. It's my own concept of what Bookman might be. It's the revival I always wanted somebody would do.
I thought about doing a cursive italic, like others have actually attempted, but in the end I chose that the initial inclined roman ought to be protected. Bookman has actually always been known for its swashes, so I likewise made a superset of the lots of swash characters that have been included to Bookman over the years.
I wished to go beyond its past and make something new. I included things that Bookman never had like little caps, old style figures, alternate characters, ligatures, stylistic sets, substantial language support, and more.
The family is composed of five weights-- Light, Regular, Semibold, Strong, and Black, plus italics.
It's my love letter to the classic Bookman: Bookmania.
