NewsSerif was designed by Henning Skibbe and published by CharacterType. NewsSerif contains 21 styles and family package options. The font is currently #33 in Hot New Fonts.
NewsSerif is the sister typeface of NewsSans. Together they are a great toolbox for all editorial and typographic challenges – analogue or digital. The 20 styles of NewsSerif are divided into three subfamilies named after their suggested use: Text, Large and Huge. The letter style evolves throughout the different subfamilies to become more expressive in the Large and Huge families.
All roman styles from the NewsSerif Text family are bundled with Italics from NewsSans. While this may appear to be an unusual pairing it makes a perfect match. The roman and italic weights are balanced perfectly.
