Bettoni
Font info
Bettoni is an extensive typeface family in the Bodonian style. Three optical sizes – Text, Subhead and Display – make it outstandingly valuable for publishing, from books to magazines and newspapers, both in print and on screen.
Bettoni has a generous x-height and follows the standard design features of so-called ‘modern’ type: vertical axis, high thick-thin contrast, thin serifs and small apertures. Great care was taken to ensure maximum readability: in Bettoni Text, ideally for use from 6 to 14 points, the letters are wider and the contrast is lower than in the other optical sizes. The Display family is more compact and refined, and works best above 24 points.
Bettoni was inspired by Giambattista Bodoni’s roman types, albeit without reference to any specific one of them. Niccolò Bettoni (1770–1842) was a 19th-century printer and publisher who used Bodoni’s types. He printed a number of Italian classics, including the first edition of Ugo Foscolo’s poem Dei sepolcri (1808). Signor Bettoni used several of Bodoni’s types, often without paying for them, and imitated Bodoni’s neoclassical style in the layout of his books.
Bettoni has nine weights (UltraLight, Light, Book, Regular, Regular-Dark, Medium, SemiBold, Bold, Black), each with its oblique companion. Other attributes of Bettoni are small caps, several sets of figures, including old style and lining, tabular and proportional, superior and inferior figures and fractions. Each Bettoni family font file also contains twenty border ornaments, closely based on the original Bodoni and Bettoni fleurons that can still be seen in their type specimens.
