    Any of the Venetians are classic Italian. Arno is a better Bembo, and Minion is a contemporary riff on Venetian oldstyles that's better than either of the above (imo).

    The digital Bembo is a poor substitute for the original lead version. Brittle, thin, and the R is ridiculously wide.

    • alas, you are right. i did get centaur from ELEMENTS OF TYPOGRAPHY though :(doesnotexist
    • Centaur has a nice warmth to it, but it never really appealed to me. Just a personal preference.gramme
