Stern Pro was created by Jim Rimmer and released by Canada Type. Stern Pro includes 1 design. p > Originally launched in 2008, Stern is the only typeface to be produced and marketed at the same time in digital and metal. In the twenty-first century, no less. It is also the last typeface Jim Rimmer ever finished. The procedure he utilized for its design and manufacture is the stuff of legend, and can be seen in the Richard Kegler documentary, Making Faces: Metal Type in the 21st Century. The style is a fragile upright italic called in memory of Chris Stern, the late artist and printer from Washington State.

In 2013, Canada Type remastered and expanded the style's offerings to a glyphset of over 1200 characters, updated shows. Now Stern Pro consists of the following features:

- Small caps.

- Caps-to-small-caps functionality, helpful for setting mid-height caps alongside lowercase.

- Tall caps.

- Historical kinds.

- A wide array of alternates for both uppercase and lowercase letters.

- Lots of ligatures.

- Seven kinds of numerals, enclosers, cojoiners and currency symbols.

- Automatic fractions.

- A total set of lowercase ordinals, from a to z.

- Case-sensitive forms.

- Language support for Greek and over 50 Latin languages.

20% of this font style's earnings will be contributed to the Canada Type Scholarship Fund, supporting greater typography education in Canada.
