Member The… Posted February 6, 2013 Share Posted February 6, 2013 This topic was imported from the Typophile platform It seems to me that it's hard to find a sans-serif typeface that has anything other than identical or nearly-identical stroke weights throughout. I'm looking for something much more like a Didone, or at least a Garalde, in terms of stroke weight, but a sans-serif. Has anybody got any recommendations? Thanks! Link to comment

Member The… Posted February 7, 2013 Author Share Posted February 7, 2013 These are great suggestions, but nothing's working for me yet. I need to match Adobe Jenson Pro alongside some ornamentation. So many of these have an Art Deco slant that will pull too much focus. The sans-serif part of this design is more of a subheader to the main title, which is in Jenson. Anyway, please keep ideas coming! Thanks! :-) Link to comment
Member hra… Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 There are some sans derivations of Trajan out there (with lc) - one of those might click. hhp Link to comment

Member Lex… Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 ITC Legacy Sans would really match Jenson, like John said. It has its roots in Jenson, so it shouldn't cause you much problems. Link to comment
