Monotype fonts were developed by the Monotype company. This name has been used by three firms. Two of them had their roots in "hot metal" or lead type in the printing industry. They did not adapt when the market changed as computer, offset and photographic systems became dominant. These were: * Lanston Monotype Cooperation in

Hot metal

The first two firms mentioned above produced a long list of fonts, which were identified by names and serial numbers. That type design eventually acquired a very good name and the "Monotype" brand was synonymous with high quality and reliability. In their name much typographic research on historical character designs from the early years of typography has been carried out. Many of the letters were produced as "revivals" , including characters in

and many other typefaces. The major difference between the two firms is that the American fonts do not match the English fonts. Letters with the same name had in most cases a different designer, and their appearance and implementation differ. The identification numbers do not all correspond. The matrices of the two firms also differ in terms of depth, the image inside the matrix, implementation, and size. For example, the American matrices are shallower by 0.025   mm (0.010

), and consequently the interior of American foundry moulds need to be higher to produce characters with a type height of 23.3  mm (0.918   inch). This was one of many measures taken by the two Monotype companies to divide the world market between themselves. For example, the Americans served the Americas and the Canadian markets. The British company, The Monotype Corporation Ltd. in Salfords, had many customers in India, Africa, and Asia. For these countries many non-Latin typefaces were created for printing in Hebrew, Javanese, Sanskrit, Sinhala, Thai, and other languages. The composition-caster machines of The Monotype Corporation produced ready-to-use composed pages with text consisting of single pieces of type. The machine provided filled lines, justifying them by adding spaces of varying widths. These ending machines were controlled with a paper ribbon. Typing the texts on keyboards was manual work that took much more time than casting. A composition-caster needed the ribbons of at least three separate keyboards. Correction of the final composition was accomplished by simply replacing the moveable type. The lines did not need to be recast, as with

s. These composition-casters could produce type in sizes up to 14 point pica or Didot font width. "Large-composition" customized machines and moulds could provide composition up to 36 points. The matrices are correspondingly larger and there is room for only one alphabet in the die case. For this reason one machine-run could not provide composition in both Roman and italic typeface, so additional hand work was required in such cases. Type for hand-composing was also cast with Monotype machines; all characters up to 36pt, and rules, could be cast on a large-composition machine. Another machine was the "super-caster" or "supra", which could cast single type. After conversion it could also be used to cast any material needed in print shops, including reglettes, ornaments, and similar designs, as well as characters up to 72 points. There were moulds with inserts for sizes 14 to 36 point. For the even larger sizes of 42, 48, 60 and 72 point another type cast was used. The machine had to be reconfigured for each different type requirement.


Unit arrangement

The width of the hot-lead Monotype type is expressed in units of a set. The widest letter in the alphabet, usually the capital "W", was measured in quarter- pica points, a unit being part of this width. The unit width is calculated as follows for a 12-set example. * 1 pica = inch * 1 pica point = × inch = 0.013889 inch * 1 unit 1 set = × × = inch = 0.000771605 inch * 1 unit 12 set = = 0.00925926 inch All character were designed to have widths a whole number of units of the set. 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, up to 18 or even more. * 5 units 12 set = 0.046296 inch * 6 units 12 set = 0.055555 * 7 units 12 set = 0.064815 ..... * 18 units 12 set = 0.1667 inch English and American manuals use a different size for the pica: the new-pica = 0.1660 inch. On the European mainland all wedges and tables in the manuals are based on the "old" pica = 0.1667 inch and those wedges can be identified by the extra capital E (= English). That gives small differences in the tables in the various manuals. In practice, however, these differences are so small that they make only little difference when cast with a S5-E wedge or a S5 wedge based on the new-pica. All character are designed to have as width a whole number of units of the set. So, for instance, A=14, B=13, C=14... a=8, b,d,h,k,n,p,q=10, c=8 ... The list with these widths is called the "unit-arrangement" (UA). Different fonts can have the same UA. In some font designs the unit-arrangement can be different for each point size, for example, with the

. These UAs are essential for the layout of the matrix case, in which the matrices are sorted into rows by the unit widths. The various "unit-arrangements" have been given numbers.


Long and short descenders

The letters g j p q y ij are descenders. In the italic typefaces ''f'' and the "long s" are also descenders. Many of the older fonts were intended mainly for use in newspaper columns.

is a good example, but there were many others. The descenders were kept as short as possible in such fonts so that all the text could be set with the same line spacing. However, for many fonts for luxury productions longer variants of the descenders were also available—the lining would usually need to be adjusted to accommodate them when casting.


Letterpress printing

The design of fonts for letterpress printing needs to be adjusted for this technique. The reason is that the type is printed with some force on the paper, pressing the ink on the type out to the edges of the letter. The center of the character is accordingly printed a bit lighter than the edges. This results in what is called a "bead edge". It is further enhanced because not only the surface of the type get inked, but also the bevels around it, which also contributes to the visual effect of the printed typeface, as can be readily seen with a magnifying glass. The bead edge and bright centre in print suggest a calligraphic typeface. And with letterpress there is a much wider choice of suitable, often more expensive, paper types that can be printed.


Computer adjustments

printing in more and more printing companies, with Lanston Monotype being the first to do so in America, the font designs needed adjustment for computer use. There is a difference compared with the old hot-metal characters since the fixed relationship between the width of the letters in the unit arrangement is often experienced as a disadvantage. Discussion of this problem has long been going on, for example by
Jan van Krimpen Jan, JaN or JAN may refer to: Acronyms * Jackson, Mississippi (Amtrak station), US, Amtrak station code JAN * Jackson-Evers International Airport, Mississippi, US, IATA code * Jabhat al-Nusra (JaN), a Syrian militant group * Japanese Article Numb ...
. The design of a lead type cannot be copied without some adjustments since the pressure on lead type during printing presses the ink sideways, and the final appearance of the letter on paper is wider than the surface of the lead character. This extra width is not the same at all places around the character. It depends on the paper surface used, the pressure, the type of press, whether cylinder or platten, and many other factors. Many digital fonts from the early digital age have this characteristic defect. The metal surface was simply copied, the result being that the color of the printed pages is far too light. In offset or other modern printing techniques, the typeface on the plate and on the printed letter now match much more closely. The use of mostly coated papers with offset types also has an effect. During the type design process all this should be taken into account since simple design drawing of the surface of a lead letter without any adjustment for offset or computer printing will not produce a good result.


List of typefaces

The alphabetical list below refers primarily to the fonts produced by the English "hot metal" Monotype company. The numbers mentioned below are from the English "specimen-blades", four editions of the booklets "Monotype book of information", and some additional information from the London Type Museum. In the 1960s many Monotype fonts were discontinued. The "patterns" for the originals from which the punches were created, the punches, and the whole stock of remaining matrices were destroyed. The font has disappeared except for the matrices in the possession of various printers. Sample sheets of these fonts are particularly difficult to find and are lacking in many collections. A small number of American letter designs are added to the list, designated by "Am" and their number. American matrices differ from those in England. American matrices were 0.0025   mm (0.0010   inch) less deeply engraved. Consequently, the American moulds were 0.0025   mm (0.0010   inch) higher internally compared with moulds from the factory in Salfords UK. Consequently, American matrices on an English cast produce a low letter. English matrices on American moulds produce French-height type. The list of computer letters from Monotype Imaging, Inc. is constantly being modified and can be best consulted on the website of the company.

was modified for Monotype. Jan van Krimpen had given his permission to change his design for hand composing of Lettergieterij Amsterdam to edit it for machine composition. Later he had to admit that the result was very good. But he added immediately that "if" he had known this in advance ... he never would have agreed ... to get as close as possible to the original design to be able to stay, it was necessary to make another unit-arrangement for each size. Consequently, it was a very expensive for the printer customers, since each size with another wedge had to be poured. Also on the keyboard keybanks for each size was another requirement, and extra wedges also had to be purchased. : 255: Lutetia ''Roman''/''italic'' :: composition matrices Unit arrangements different for each size :: display matrices:

The colour is matched to antique characters, but the serifs are almost horizontal and vertical. The font runs quite wide and the color is fairly light.

(Berlin and Frankfurt); and Monotype matrices could be ordered from the Monotype Setzmachinen-Fabrik GMbH (Frankfurt and Berlin). This can still be done at the Type Museum in London, because the "patterns" and punches and production archives survived there. ::The shape of the letter was identical for all three systems. Hand-composing type could be mixed with Linotype and Monotype composition rules. The letter had a limited success. There was also criticism: the letter suffered from the combined disadvantages of the three systems. For example: the Roman and italic faces are as wide as those on a Linotype matrix when combined. And Jan van Krimpen had objections to what he considered the too rigid unit-system of Monotype. : 669: Sabon ''Roman''/''italic'' :: composition matrices: UA.503 8D-12D : 693: Sabon Semi-Bold ''Roman'' :: composition matrices: UA.503 8D-12D * Sachsenwald Mager : 499: Sachsenwald Mager (cancelled in 1965) * Sans Serif : _15: Sans-Serif (see: 15 Grotesque Bold Condensed No.2) : _81: Sans-Serif (see: 81 Grotesque Bold Condensed) : 267: Sans-Serif (cancelled in 1965) : 318: Sans-Serif Condensed (see: 318 Grotesque Condensed) * Schmale Nürnburger Gotisch : 186: Schmale Nürnburger Gotisch ''fraktuur'' (cancelled in 1965) :: display matrices in 6 sizesThe Monotype Corporation Ltd. specimen blade Serie nr. 186 * Schoeffer : _22: Schoeffer (cancelled in 1964) :: composition matrices UA.2, 8pt, 10pt, 12 pt * Schurmann Antiqua Halbfette : _52: Schurmann Antiqua Halbfette ''Roman'' (synonym: 52 Modern Mediaeval (Half-Fat) (cancelled in 1967) * Scotch Roman : _46: Scotch Roman ''Roman''/''italic'' :: composition matrices: UA.1 = 6-12pt : 137: Scotch Roman ''Roman''/''italic'' :: composition matrices: 8-12pt :: large composition: UA.144 = ''Roman'', UA.151 = ''italic'' :: display matrices: * Script : 322: Script (see: 322 Script Bold) : 574: Script Ashley (see: 574 Ashley Script) : 322: Script Bold ''script'' :: display matrices:The Monotype Corporation Ltd. 9-51 : 436: Script Dorchester (see: 436 Dorchester Script) : 493: Script Grosvenor (see: 493 Grosvenor Script) : 475: Script Light :: display matrices:The Monotype Corporation Ltd. 2-58 : 351: Script Monoline (see: 351 Monoline Script) : 429: Script Palace (see: 429 Palace Script) : 455: Script Temple (see: 455 Temple Script) : 385: Script Wenceslas (see: 385 Wenceslas Script) (cancelled in 196?) * Shadow French : 434: Shadow French (cancelled) * Shakespeare Titling : 234: Shakespeare Titling (cancelled in 1967) :: display matrices: * Sheldon : 552: Sheldon * Solus : 276: Solus ''Roman'' (cancelled in 1967) :: composition matrices: UA.320 = 12pt-14ptThe Monotype Corporation Ltd. 9-39 :: display matrices: : 368: Solus Bold ''Roman'' (cancelled in 1967) :: composition matrices: UA.320 = 12pt-14pt : 368: Solus Heavy (see: Solus Bold) * Spartan :: Imitation of stone inscriptions of chopped capitals: the font contains only capital letters, numbers, and punctuation.

There was more than enough space for all the underlined characters in the die case as well. :: Printers used these fonts to print mailings for large companies. The print was made to look like a hand-typed personal letter. The press was covered with previously used, worn paper combined with a thin cloth silk tissue. In this way, the type did not receive equal pressure and ink on the paper. Thus it appeared that the letter was typed by a somewhat inexperienced secretary. : _82: Typewriter No.1 ''Roman'' :: composition matrices: UA.28 = 10pt-12pt : 100: Typewriter No.2 ''Roman'' (see: 100 Typewriter 82) : 105: Typewriter No.3 ''Roman'' (see: 105 Typewriter 82) : 127: Typewriter No.4 ''Roman'' :: composition matrices: UA.28 = 8pt-12pt : 235: Typewriter No.5 Elite ''Roman'' (see: 235 Typewriter 82) : 301: Typewriter No.6 Elite ''Roman'' (see: 301 Typewriter 82) : 602: Typewriter IBM "Executive" ''Roman'' :: This font is an exception to the rule: it has character of different widths, "unit values".
