In 1962, Monotype commissioned renowned Swiss type designer Adrian Frutiger to create Apollo™ Italic an appealing serif text family. Apollo Italic was Monotype's first type design developed specifically for phototypesetting and litho printing. Although it was designed in the mid-twentieth century, Apollo Italic has a timeless air with a hint of old-world classic style. Apollo Italic is a wonderful alternative to more traditional book faces such as Bembo and Baskerville. A clean, well-proportioned design, Apollo's carefully drawn, balanced letterforms and even spacing contribute to enhanced readability at a range of text sizes. Character Set: Latin-1
