Stone Sans II: The ITC Stone Sans II typeface family is new from the drawing board up. Sumner Stone, who designed the original faces in 1988, recently collaborated with Delve Withrington and Jim Wasco of Monotype Imaging to update the family of faces that bears his name. Sumner was the lead designer and project director for the full-blown reworking – and his own greatest critic.
What's old is new again. Master type designer Rod McDonald revives, expands and enhances the Handel Gothic family. New italic weights complement the roman designs, and the family is available as a suite of OpenType Pro fonts.
The impetus behind Felbridge™ was both ambitious and highly practical: to develop an ideal “online” typeface for use in web pages and electronic media. Monotype’s Robin Nicholas, the family’s designer, explains, “I wanted a straightforward sans serif with strong, clear letterforms which would not degrade when viewed in low resolution environments.” Not surprisingly, the design also performs exceptionally well in traditional print applications.
Trilogy: The brand new release from the designer of the Bliss™ typeface, Jeremy Tankard Typography.
“The Trilogy collection exists to show that types can be used and mixed together in unexpected ways and in so doing very different levels of visual interest can be achieved."
Ysobel: This elegant and ultra-readable new serif typeface family is inspired by the Century and Century Schoolbook typefaces of the early twentieth century. Excellent legibility, coupled with economy of setting and a clean, modern look mean this typeface is destined to become a natural choice wherever easy and rapid assimilation is required. It is the perfect setting in newspapers, periodicals, magazines, paperbacks and catalogues.
Henning Skibbe is a graphic and type designer from Hamburg, Germany. His thesis project the typeface family 'Haptic' received a Certificate of Excellence in Type Design from the Type Directors' Club in 2009.
Fontschmiede, a German foundry, was started in 2008 by designers Frank Baranowski and Michel M. Their philosophy is: "there is at least one special occasion for a font - and the font has to be perfect for this purpose". They publish high-quality fonts regardless of whether they are considered useful or experimental.
The ITC Legacy™ Square Serif and ITC Legacy Serif Condensed designs make the ITC Legacy family a typographic tour de force. These two designs join the ITC Legacy Sans and ITC Legacy Serif suites of typefaces to create a remarkably handsome and versatile extended typeface family.

Arabetics is a small foundry specializing in the design of simplified, non-traditional, Arabetic (extended Arabic) fonts. It was founded by type designer Saad D. Abulhab to produce fonts based on his Mutamathil Type Style design model which is intended for the creation of generic, compact, non calligraphic fonts. In the Mutamathil fonts, each letter is assigned one unique normal glyph. Additionally, an optional final form glyph is assigned to each freely joining letter in the traditional Arabic script.

DIN Next™ is a stunning new typeface family inspired by the classic industrial engineering designs, DIN 1451 Engschrift and DIN Mittelschrift. Designed by Akira Kobayashi, DIN Next™ is a response to an upsurge in demand for the original DIN 1451 fonts, with many designers requesting additional weights. The emphasis is on understatement: clean lines and a stark absence of embellishment; simple yet revealing a unity bound by classical principles.
