Not only do we carry fonts from the big guys, FontShop is also your source for the best of independent foundries like The TypeTrust, Mark Simonson, Sudtipos, and the brand new Typejockeys. Each of these outfits are run by a small group of talented craftsmen and women who are creating original, useful typefaces under their own banner.

Premiéra

Premiéra is a typeface specifically designed to work in small sizes. A large x-height and short ascenders and descenders make it ideal for books and newspapers. Through an exhaustive process of testing readability on test prints, the face developed straight lines and sharp forms. These features not only work to make the type clear, but also give Premiéra a strong personality whether you read it in text or headlines.

Ingeborg

The Modern typeface classification is usually associated with Didones and display faces that often have too much contrast for text use. The Ingeborg family was designed with the intent of producing a Modern face that was readable at any size. Its roots might well be historic, but its approach is very contemporary. The three text weights (Regular, Bold, and Heavy) are functional and discreet while the Display weights (Fat and Block) catch the reader’s eye with a dynamic form and a whole lot of ink on the paper. The family includes a boatload of extras like unicase alternates, swash caps, and a lined fill.

Freight Sans Pro and Freight Text Pro

We’re very pleased to announce that Freight, the perennially popular type system, now has Pro versions for all the Text and Sans fonts. Small caps, figure styles, and stylistic alternates are now much more efficiently accessed via OpenType, making the family even more appealing for publication design.

The new Freight speaks nearly all Latin based languages, and small caps, figure styles, and stylistic alternates are now much more efficiently accessed via OpenType, making the family even more appealing for publication design.

Fugu

After the successful Baka and Baka Too, Neil Summerour took brush to paper for another script with an expressive personality.

Mostra Nuova

An expanded and enhanced version of Mostra, Mark Simonson’s tribute to Italian Art Deco lettering. This OpenType version adds lowercase letters and 20 stylistic sets for easy access to the hundreds of alternate characters.
