Bembo_both_Rs.png


Summary

Description
English: The Monotype font Bembo includes (at least in metal type) two "R"s - one with a beautiful wide leg matching its inspiration, one with a more tucked-in leg suitable for body text. This illustrates the difference. Not all digitisations include both. For this image, the quite delicate "Bergamo" digitisation of Bembo from Fontsite is used for the heading, and the open-source ET Book for the body text. Monotype's Bembo Book digitisation is one of the few digital releases to include both styles.
