Zapf Elliptical 711 FONT Download
Designer: Hermann Zapf,
Publisher: ParaType
The Bitstream version of Melior, a twentieth century modern face commissioned by Stempel and designed by Hermann Zapf in 1952. It is based on Zapf’s thoughts about the squared-off circle known as a super-ellipse.
The type was originally intended as a newspaper text face by Linotype. Hermann Zapf’s Melior exhibits a robust character through classic and objective forms. Versatile and extremely legible, it can be used for a variety of texts and point sizes.
Cyrillic version was developed by Natalya Vasilyeva and licensed by ParaType in 2002.
