Adobe Type Library Reference Book, Fourth Edition

Classical Revivals

Some Adobe Originals are revivals of typefaces that are considered classic historical designs, such as Adobe Caslon, Adobe Garamond, Adobe Jenson, and Garamond Premier Pro. To create classical revivals, Adobe’s designers research the original type on rare specimen sheets preserved in libraries, foundries, and private collections throughout the world. Like other Adobe Originals, Adobe’s revivals embody an unsurpassed attention to detail, enabling them to capture the spirit of classical typefaces in a modern form and allow these long-gone designs to enrich text again today.
