Garamond 3 was designed by Morris Benton and published by Adobe. Garamond 3 contains 4 styles and family package options.
Some of the most popular typefaces in history are those based on the types of the sixteenth-century printer, publisher, and type designer Claude Garamond, whose sixteenth-century types were modeled on those of Venetian printers from the end of the previous century.
The Linotype version of Garamond from 1936 is based on the American Type Founders design by Morris Fuller Benton and Thomas Maitland Cleland, who based their work, in turn, on seventeenth-century copies of Claude Garamond’s types by Jean Jannon.
Garamond 3 has been popular since its release in the 1930s as an all-purpose text face, working superbly for books and for display uses as well.
