A powerful, energetic and exciting condensed typeface. It brings charming curves and satisfying patterns to traditional condensed fonts. It's designed for impact, without sacrificing style or legibility. It looks especially stunning in large scale, although it still carries a punch at smaller point sizes. It's born to be! Ideal for magazine, posters, headlines and pull quotes.

Originally made for the Observer newspaper, in London, this version of Plantin is more condensed than the standard typeface. This condensing is most noticeable in the capitals and the bold fonts. The News Plantin font family was designed primarily for use in a magazine supplement. It retains the robust nature of Plantin but provides better economy in text use.
