Neacademia was developed by Sergei Egorov and published by Rosetta. Neacademia consists of 8 designs and family bundle options. p > Neacademia is a Latin and Cyrillic type family influenced by the types cut by 15th century Italian punchcutter Francesco Griffo for the well-known Venetian printer and publisher Aldus Manutius. The family consists of different variations optimised for particular point sizes, as was conventional in metal type. While the display screen sizes keep a visual link to calligraphic roots, text sizes show more typographic qualities, following the hand of the carver, not the calligrapher.

Neacademia was developed with particular allowances for letterpress photopolymer printing. Printed digitally, it can tolerate-- and even benefit from-- low resolution, rough paper, and low-grade presswork. It likewise embraces a more traditional technique to kerning and caps-spacing-- instead of a wide variety of kerning sets, it uses alternative contextual letterforms. In numerous methods, it seems like utilizing metal type again!
