The Renzo™ types are mainly variations on the theme of Hermecito. The roman is a slightly lighter design and the wedge serifs of the Hermecito design are now much reduced and sharpened; the letters of the italic (originally called ‘Lucia’) are vertical. A and B fonts with alternative letters are supplied. Cyrillic and ‘polytonic’ Greek letters are contained in each of the regular fonts. If boldface is required the bold and extrabold forms of Hermecito can be used with the Renzo type comfortably. The high-resolution specimens (pdf for US Letter and A4) contain sample texts.
