FontFont have announced that they are to release Helvetica Serif, following the discovery of drawings of the typeface by Max Miedinger. The sketches which were discovered by Miedinger’s granddaughter have been redrawn to create the digital version shown above.
The font has been released today, April 1st.
Haha.
It’s an April Fool’s Joke for Typography nerds.
Next up is the Adobe Garamond sans-serif ;-).. Great April Fool’s!
Erik S. has a great sense of humor. Times New Roman. Sweet.
Here is the Helvetica Serif that isn’t an April Fool’s joke: Helserif.
