About Adobe Jenson MM

Adobe Jenson is based on the roman type designs cut by Nicolas Jenson circa 1470 and italic types used by the master scribe, Ludovico degli Arrighi early in the sixteenth century. Adobe Jenson follows the success of Bruce Rogers Centaur roman (1928) and Frederic Wardes Arrighi italic - later called Centaur italic, which were based on the same origins. Adobe Jenson is a Multiple Master typeface with weight and optical size axes. The Adobe Jenson font family is an elegant text typeface for prestigious works, and is also well suited to display and headline use.
