Le Monde Journal Std

Le Monde Journal is the typeface on which the entire Le Monde family is based. By definition, it is intended for newspaper use & at small sizes. Even though it has the same colour as Times, it appears more open. The reading flow has been made more fluent & less abrupt. The counters in the glyphs are bigger, as if they were “alluminating the interior.” The form, characterized by its serifs, remains embedded in our visual memory.
To accommodate any problems in newspaper printing, the bold sharply contrasts with the roman. The demi weight is better suited to titling or more careful printing. Italics accompany Le Monde Journal. With a more delicate design & a distinctive rhythm, they remain noticeable when used with the romans. Le Monde Journal is available in three weights, each in roman, italic & small capitals.

This family was designed in 1994 as custom font for the French newspaper Le Monde. The family is not used any more by this newspaper from November 2005. Remain few use on others publications of Le Monde.
