█ (RELEASE NOTES) ██ █
█ ▓▓ ██ █
█ ██ When Erik Spiekermann redesigned The Economist magazine 2001, ██ █
█ ██ he chose his typeface, Officina, as the "information" face û ██ █
█ ██ all the graphs, tables, sidebars and captions are set in ITC ██ █
█ ██ Officina Sans. When the faces were tested at large sizes for ██ █
█ ██ the cover, however, it became obvious that the design was not ██ █
█ ██ suited for display copy. Design changes were necessary. The ██ █
█ ██ changes Erik made to ITC Officina for The Economist became the ██ █
█ ██ basis for ITC Officina Display. "The display version I ██ █
█ ██ sketched out had sharp corners, the terminals are not as ██ █
█ ██ oblique, and the swings at the top left of the characters have ██ █
█ ██ all but gone." ██ █
█ ██ ██ █
█ ██ Only the Bold and Black weights were redesigned for The ██ █
█ ██ Economist. It became readily apparent, however, that these ██ █
█ ██ could serve as the foundation for a new suite of designs to ██ █
█ ██ complement the existing ITC Officina family. Erik worked with ██ █
█ ██ fellow type designer, Christian Schwartz to complete the new ██ █
█ ██ additions. The new designs are slightly heavier and fit a ██ █
█ ██ little snugger than the text versions. Punctuation marks and ██ █
█ ██ the dots over the 'i' and 'j' were made smaller. A series of ██ █
█ ██ dingbats was even created for the new designs. Many ██ █
█ ██ additional, more subtle, changes were also made to the ██ █
█ ██ original designûall with the goal of making Officina Display ██ █
█ ██ an excellent communicator at large sizes. ██ █
