About
Abelard's lowercase letters feature open apertures, a moderate x-height and ball terminals, while the capitals are notably even in width – qualities that contribute to consistent text colour on screen. The italics are more expressive than the romans, narrower in proportion and lighter in weight, with curved right arms on 'v', 'w' and 'y' to aid spacing. Each style includes case-sensitive forms, four figure sets, ligatures and pen-nib ornaments.
Classification
A contemporary neoclassical serif drawing on Baskerville, Bulmer and Scotch Roman traditions, with moderate stroke contrast, ball terminals and open apertures characteristic of the transitional-to-modern genre.
