Fournier was designed by Pierre Fournier and published by Adobe. Fournier includes 2 styles and household package choices. p > In 1924, Monotype based this face on types cut by Pierre Simon Fournier circa 1742 and called "St Augustin Ordinaire " in Fournier''s Manuel Typographique. These types were some of the most influential designs of the eighteenth century, being amongst the earliest of the "transitional " design of typeface, and were a stepping stone to the more extreme "modern " design made popular by Bodoni later on in the century. They had more vertical stress than the old design types, greater contrast between thick and thin strokes and little or no bracketing on the serifs.
