Adobe Jenson is an old-style serif typeface drawn for Adobe Systems by its chief type designer Robert Slimbach.

History In October 1458, while acting as Master of the French Royal Mint, Jenson was sent to Mainz, by King Charles VII, to study the art of metal movable type. By the time Jenson arrived in Mainz, there were a number of established printers under which he could have been apprenticed. Jenson left Mainz in 1461. Some hypothesize that Jens ...
