After all this, it took a 'failed' attempt to update Windows from the CD (and from there to the MS website for the latest Windows version; there were, however, some issues that made it 'fail') for me to finally realize that I could go into my wife's computer and copy her Times New Roman.regular. font into my Font folder. Duuuuh:-) When I copied the file, it said that it already existed in the folder (but it was not visible), so I overwrote it, and now, everything is fine. However, it means that the file was somehow affected by something, and it could probably have been made visible again. If anyone knows how that could have been done, I would still appreciate to learn how. (I have scoured the Web to no avail). Regards, Hans L.
Times New Roman Mixed Commissioned by Date released 1932 Design based on Times New Roman is a designed for legibility in. It was commissioned by the British newspaper in 1931 and conceived by, the artistic advisor to the British branch of the printing equipment company, in collaboration with, a lettering artist in the Times' advertising department. Although no longer used by The Times, Times New Roman is still very common in book and general printing.
Times New Roman All Caps Font
It has become one of the most popular and influential typefaces in history and a standard typeface on most desktop computers. Times New Roman's creation took place through the influence of of. Morison was an artistic director at Monotype, historian of printing and informal adviser to The Times. Asked to advise on a redesign, he recommended that they change their text typeface from a spindly and somewhat dated nineteenth-century face to a more robust, solid design, returning to traditions of printing from the eighteenth century and before. This matched a common trend in printing tastes of the period.
The new face was drawn by Victor Lardent, an artist from the advertising department of The Times, with Morison consulting, before refinement by the Monotype drawing office. Morison proposed an older Monotype typeface named as a basis for the design, and Times New Roman mostly matches Plantin's dimensions. The main change was that the contrast between strokes was enhanced to give a crisper image. As a typeface designed for newspaper printing, Times New Roman has a high, short descenders to allow tight linespacing and a relatively condensed appearance. The new design made its debut in The Times on 3 October 1932.
After one year, the design was released for commercial sale. Although Morison may not have literally drawn the design, his influence on its concept was sufficient that he felt that he could take credit for it as 'my one effort at designing a font'. In Times New Roman's name, Roman is a reference to the regular style of a conventional serif font, or what is called its, the first part of the Times New Roman family to be designed.
(The style is called in some countries.) Roman type has some roots in Italian (and other European) printing of the late 15th and early 16th centuries, but Times New Roman's design has no connection to or to the. The Times stayed with Times New Roman for 40 years, but new production techniques and the format change from to in 2004 have caused it to switch typeface five times from 1972 to 2007. However, all the new fonts have been variants of the original New Roman typeface. Once released for commercial sale, Times New Roman became extremely successful, becoming Monotype's best-selling typeface of all time in metal type. A Ludlow Typograph specimen of Times New Roman Type Specimen from the metal type period.
The design was altered in smaller sizes to increase readability, particularly obvious in the widened spacing of the six and eight point samples at centre right of the diagram. Times New Roman has a robust on the page and influences of European and printing. The design is slightly condensed, with short and and a high (tall lower-case letters), all effects that save space and increase clarity. The ultimate origin of the 'Roman' (regular) style of Plantin and Times New Roman was a metal type created in the late sixteenth century by the French artisan and preserved in the collection of the of.
This style is sometimes categorised as part of the of serif fonts. Morison admired this style for its solid structure and clarity. However, due to features such as its 'a' and 'e', with larger than in Granjon's design, its detailing and an increased level of contrast between thick and thin strokes, it has also been compared to fonts from the late eighteenth century, the so-called ' genre, in particular the typeface of the 1750s. Historian and sometime Monotype executive Allan Haley commented that compared to Plantin 'serifs had been sharpened.contrast was increased and character curves were refined,' while Lawson described Times's higher-contrast crispness as having 'a sparkle Plantin never achieved.' (The 'a' of Plantin was already not directly sourced from Granjon's work: the sheet from the Plantin-Moretus Museum used as a specimen for Monotype to use in designing Plantin had an 'a' from the wrong font. ) Other changes from Plantin include a straight-sided 'M' and 'W' with three upper terminals not Plantin's four, both choices that move away from the old-style model. Times compared with its influences in italic.
The italic was made simpler than Plantin's, losing flourishes on the 'w' and 'v', and the entrance stroke to the letter (also seen on Baskerville) on letters like 'u' and 'n'. Morison described the companion as also being influenced by the typefaces created by the in the late 18th and early 19th centuries: a 'rationalistic italic that owed nothing to the tradition of the sixteenth or seventeenth centuries.
It has, indeed, more in common with the eighteenth century.' Morison had several years earlier attracted attention for promoting the radical idea that in book printing were too disruptive to the flow of text, and should be phased out. He rapidly came to concede that the idea was misguided, and later wryly commented to historian that Times' italic 'owes more to than dogma.' Morison wrote in a personal letter of Times New Roman's mixed heritage that it 'has the merit of not looking as if it had been designed by somebody in particular.' Times New Roman compared to its bold. The bold weight has a different style, more 'nineteenth-century' in appearance, with flat serifs on the tops of letters, an effect also seen in the vertical axis of the 'o'. Rather than creating a companion with letterforms similar to the roman style, Times New Roman's bold has a different character, with a more condensed and more upright effect caused by making the horizontal parts of curves consistently the thinnest lines of each letter, and making the top serifs of letters like 'd' purely horizontal.
This effect is not found in sixteenth-century typefaces (which did not have bold versions); it is most associated with type of the early nineteenth century and with the more recent 'Ionic' styles of type influenced by it that were offered by Linotype (discussed below), which were very dominant in contemporary newspaper printing. Some commentators have found Times' bold unsatisfactory and too condensed, such as and Stephen Coles. Development The development of Times New Roman was relatively involved due to the lack of a specific pre-existing model – or perhaps a surfeit of possible choices. Morison wrote in a memo that he hoped for a design that would have relatively sharp serifs, matching the general design of the Times' previous font, but on a darker and more traditional basic structure.
Bulked-up versions of Monotype's pre-existing but rather dainty and typefaces were considered for a basis, and the Ionic designs from Linotype, such as, that were popular in newspaper printing at the time, were also examined. (Perpetua, which Monotype had recently commissioned from sculptor at Morison's urging, is considered a 'transitional' design in aesthetic, although it does not revive any specific model.) Walter Tracy, who knew Lardent, suggested in the 1980s that 'Morison did not begin with a clear vision of the ultimate type, but felt his way along.' Morison's biographer has written that Morison's memos of the time wavered over a variety of options before it was ultimately concluded that Plantin formed the best basis for a condensed font that could nonetheless be made to fill out the full size of the letter space as far as possible.
(Morison ultimately conceded that Perpetua, which had been his pet project, was 'too basically circular' to be practical to condense in an attractive way. ) and James Moran, who discussed the design's creation with Lardent in the 1960s, found that Lardent himself had little memory of exactly what material Morison gave him as a specimen to use to design the typeface, but he told Moran that he remembered working on the design from archive photographs of vintage type, which Tracy suggests might have been the same specimen of type from the Plantin-Moretus Museum that Plantin had been based on, or a specimen of Plantin itself.
The sharpened serifs somewhat recall Perpetua, although Morison's stated reason for them was to provide continuity with the previous Didone design and the crispness associated with the Times' printing; he also later cited reproduction after stereotyping as a reason for the choice. Morison's several accounts of his reasoning in designing the concept of Times New Roman were somewhat contradictory and many historians of printing have suggested that they were mostly composed to rationalise his aesthetic preferences; Monotype's newspaper printing consultant Allen Hutt, went so far as to describe his unsigned 1936 article on the topic after his death as 'rather odd.it can only be regarded as a piece of Morisonian mystification'. During the project, Monotype and The Times examined research on legibility of type and carried out legibility tests on proof sheets. The design was refined extensively during the process of development by the Monotype drawing office team, and further changes were made after manufacturing began (the latter a difficult practice, since new punches and matrices had to be machined after each design change), and so obvious differences exist between Lardent's original drawings and the final release. Rhatigan has said that Lardent's originals show 'the spirit of the final type, but not the details.'
Morison continued to develop a close connection with the Times that would last throughout his life. Morison edited the History of the Times from 1935 to 1952, and in the post-war period, at a time when Monotype effectively stopped developing new typefaces due to, took a post as editor of the which he held from 1945 to 1948. Metal type versions A large number of variants of Times were cut. Walter Tracy in Letters of Credit, Allen Hutt and others have discussed these extensively in their works on the family. Titling Monotype also created some caps-only 'titling' designs to match Times New Roman itself, which was intended for body text. While these are not sold by Monotype in digital format, Linotype's Times Eighteen in the same style (see below) remains available and could be used as a substitute.
Times Hever Titling. Times Hever Titling from a Monotype specimen.
An elegant titling caps design, quite different to Times New Roman with a A (with a serif at top left of the letter, suggesting a stroke written with a quill) and old-style C and W; Tracy suggests Monotype's previous design as an influence. Named after, the home of the Times' owner. Designed early on, it was used by the Times for section headings. It has not been digitised. Times Wide (1938, series 427) A variant intended for book printing, avoiding the slight condensation of the original Times New Roman. Although it was popular in the metal type period for book printing, it was apparently never digitised. Series 727 and 827 Monotype also produced Series 727, in which the heavier strokes of upper-case letters were made slightly thinner.
This was done to produce a lighter effect in which capital letters do not stand out so much, and was particularly intended for, since in the German language capitals are far more common since they appear at the start of each noun. Series 827 modified some letters (notably the R) to correspond to their appearance in other typefaces popular in French printing. This production of what are now called to suit national tastes was common at the time, and many alternates were also offered for for use in Europe. Claritas A modified 4¾ point size of Times Roman was produced by Monotype for use in printing matter requiring a very small size of type. Listed as Times Newspaper Smalls, available as either Series 333 or 335, it was also referred to by the name Claritas. Times 4-line Mathematics Series 569 This is a variant designed for printing mathematical formulae, using the 4‑line system for mathematics developed by Monotype in 1957. This modified version of Times Roman was designed for use as part of Monotype's 4-line Mathematics system.
The major changes to the Times Roman typeface itself were a reduction in the slope of italic characters to 12 degrees from 16 degrees, so as to reduce the need for kerning, and a change in the form of italic v and w so that italic v could be more easily distinguished from a Greek nu. The 4-line system involved casting characters for 10-point Times Roman on 6-point bodies. The top of the character would overhang the slug, forming a which was less fragile than the normal kerns of foundry type, as it was on a slab of cast metal. This technique had been in previous use on Monotype machines, usually involving double-height matrices, to allow the automatic setting of 'advertising figures' (numbers that occupy two or more lines, usually to clearly indicate a price in an advertisement set in small type).
This meant that the same matrix could be used for both superscript and subscript numbers. More importantly, it allowed a variable or other item to have both a superscript and a subscript at the same time, one above the other, without inordinate difficulty. Previously, while the Monotype system, due to its flexibility, was widely used for setting mathematical formulas, the typeface Modern Series 7 was usually used for this purpose.
Because of the popularity of Times Roman at the time, Monotype chose to design a variant of Times Roman suited to mathematical composition, and recut many additional characters needed for mathematics, including special symbols as well as Greek and Fraktur alphabets, to accompany the system instead of designing it around the typeface that was being used, for which characters were already available. Matrices for some 700 characters were available as part of Times Roman Series 569 when it was released in 1958, with new characters constantly being added for over a decade afterwards (thus, in 1971, 8,000 characters were included, and new ones were being added at a rate of about 5 per week).
A 1943 brochure used by Crowell-Collier, one of the first major American users of Times New Roman, to promote the changeover. Times New Roman's popularity rapidly expanded beyond its original niche, becoming popular in book printing and general publishing. Monotype took advantage of this popularity by commissioning a widened version, Series 427, for book publishing, although many books ultimately used the original version. An early use of Times New Roman outside its origin was by, an influential historian of printing with whom Morison carried an extensive correspondence. Impressed by the design, he used it to set his book Some Aspects of Printing, Old and New. It then was chosen by the Crowell-Collier magazines and then its sister publications such as.
A brochure was published to mark the change along with a letter from Morison hoping that the redesign would be a success., who worked on a redesign, however noted that the design's compression and fine detail extending to the edge of the matrices was actually problematic in the aggressive conditions of most newspaper printing, in which the Times was unusual for its particularly high standard of printing suiting its luxury market. Users found that in the hot metal period it was common for the molten metal to rapidly eat through the matrices, and so it did not become popular among other newspapers: 'Times Roman achieved its popularity chiefly in general printing, not in newspaper work.' He described it as particularly used in 'book work, especially non-fiction' such as the. Linotype releases. Some differences between Linotype's Times Roman and Monotype's Times New Roman typefaces.
Despite Monotype's key role in creating Times New Roman, its rival rapidly began to offer the design; The Times used Linotype equipment for much of its production. Linotype referred to the design as Times or Times Roman. Monotype and Linotype have since merged, but slight differences have split the lineage of Times into two subtly different designs. Although Times New Roman and Times are very similar, various differences developed between the versions marketed by Linotype and Monotype when the master fonts were transferred from metal to and digital media. For example, Linotype has slanted on the capital S, while Monotype's are vertical, and Linotype has an extra serif on the number 5.
Most of these differences are invisible in body text at normal reading distances, or 10pts at 300 dpi. Subtle competition grew between the two foundries, as the proportions and details as well as the width metrics for their version of Times grew apart.
Vivid differences between the two versions do occur in the lowercase z in the italic weight (Times Linotype has a curl also followed in the STIX revival, Times New Roman is straight) and in the percent sign in all weights. (Linotype and STIX have a stroke connecting up the left-hand zero with a slash, Times New Roman does not.) Linotype licensed its version to and then and, guaranteeing its importance in digital printing by making it one of the core fonts of the page description language. Microsoft's version of Times New Roman is licensed from Monotype, hence the original name. For compatibility, Monotype had to subtly redraw their design to match the widths from the Adobe/Linotype version. It has been reported to have that were originally developed for printing German (where all nouns begin with a capital letter). Versions of Times New Roman from Monotype exist which vary from the Linotype metrics (i.e.
Not the same as the version for Microsoft). Linotype applied for registration of the trademark name Times Roman and received registration status in 1945. In the 1980s, there was an attempt by a group of entrepreneurs to seek from, who owned The Times, the right to use the Times Roman name; separately, a legal action was also initiated to clarify the right of Monotype to use the name in the US despite Linotype's registration. As a result of legal action, Linotype and its licensees continued to use the name Times Roman, while Monotype and its licensees used the name Times New Roman. Modern releases As Times New Roman Monotype sells a wider range of styles and for Times New Roman than are offered with Windows, in order to meet the needs of newspapers and books which print at a range of text sizes.
Its current release includes Regular, Medium, Semi Bold and Bold weights with matching italics, Extra Bold, Condensed (in regular, italic and bold), Seven (for smaller text, in regular, italic, bold and bold italic) and Small Text (for very small text, in regular, italic and bold). As of 2017, the version of Times New Roman included with, version 6.96, includes, and italic. The Microsoft/Monotype digitisation of Times New Roman omits automatic insertion (although as of v. 6.96 it is selectable), which the version of Times installed with macOS has. (This can result in unsightly character collisions if the characters 'fi' are needed.) Times New Roman World This is a version based on fonts released with. It includes fonts in character sets, Hebrew and Arabic characters.
Similar to, Arabic in italic fonts are in roman positions. Linotype variants Like Monotype, Linotype released additional versions of Times for different text sizes. These include:. Times Ten is a version specially designed for smaller text (12 point and below).
It features wider characters and stronger hairlines. Times Eighteen, a headline version for point sizes of 18 and larger. The characters are subtly condensed and the hairlines are finer. The current version has no italics, but does have a lower case (whereas some Times titling fonts were capitals only).

Each character has the same advance width in all the fonts in the family so that changing from regular to bold or italic does not affect word wrap. Other typefaces used by The Times. The Times' previous typeface from an article describing the in 1917.
From 1908 to 1932, The Times used a serif font cut by Monotype, the same as or similar to Monotype Modern. The Times newspaper has commissioned various successors to Times New Roman:.
Times Europa was designed by in 1972 for The Times, as a sturdier alternative to the Times font family, designed for the demands of faster printing presses and cheaper paper. The typeface features more open counter spaces and a more strongly contrasting, calligraphic italic. It has been released commercially by Adobe, among others, recently in an updating by Linotype. Times Roman replaced Times Europa on 30 August 1982. Times Millennium was made in 1991, drawn by Gunnlaugur Briem on the instructions of Aurobind Patel, composing manager of News International. Times Classic first appeared in 2001.
Designed as an economical face by the British type team of Dave Farey and Richard Dawson, it took advantage of the new PC-based publishing system at the newspaper, while obviating the production shortcomings of its predecessor Times Millennium. The new typeface included 120 letters per font. Initially the family comprised ten fonts, but a condensed version was added in 2004. Times Modern was unveiled on 20 November 2006, as the successor of Times Classic.
Designed for improving legibility in smaller font sizes, it uses 45-degree angled bracket serifs. It was designed by Research Studios, led by designer with input from, deputy editor of The Times. (Other designs have been released called Times Modern; see below.) During the Times New Roman period The Times also sometimes used, also from Monotype, and one of Morison's favourite type designs from his work at Monotype. Times Modern, an exaggerated and unauthorised display adaptation of Times from the phototypesetting period.

Monotype's Times New Roman is also installed by default in recent versions of Mac OS X (10.5+). The announced that, as of 1 February 2004, all US documents would use 14 pitch sic Times New Roman instead of the previous 12 point (equivalent to 10 pitch). Researchers in 2008 found that satirical readings of text printed in Times New Roman were perceived as more funny and angry than those printed in. William Starling Burgess In 1994 the printing historian published claims that the design of Times New Roman’s roman or regular style was based on a 1904 design of.
This theory remains controversial. Parker and his friend Gerald Giampa, a Canadian printer, claimed that in 1904 Burgess created a type design for company documents at his shipyard in Marblehead, Massachusetts, and hired Lanston Monotype to issue it. However, Burgess abandoned the idea and Monotype shelved the sketches, ultimately reusing them as a basis for Times New Roman. Giampa claimed that he stumbled upon original material in 1987, after he had purchased Lanston Monotype. Giampa claimed that some of the papers that had been his evidence had been lost in a flood at his house, while Parker claimed that an additional source was material in a section of the Smithsonian now closed due to contamination.
Giampa asked Parker to complete the type from the limited number of surviving letters, which was issued in June 2009 by under the name of 'Starling'. Reception to the claims was sceptical with dismissal from Morison's biographer and among others; Barker suggested that the material had been fabricated in order to aid Giampa in embarrassing Monotype's British branch, while Devroye suggested that the claim had begun as a prank.
Monotype executive Dan Rhatigan described the theory as implausible in 2011: 'I'll admit that I tend to side with the more fully documented (both in general, and in agreement with what little I can find within Monotype to support it) notion that Times New Roman was based on Plantin.I won't rule out the possibility that Starling Burgess drew up the concept first, but makes me doubt it.' The Times Online web site credits the design to 'Stanley Morrison, Victor Lardent and perhaps Starling Burgess'.
Designs inspired by Times New Roman. Pelham Infant Because of its popularity, the typeface has been influential in the subsequent development of a number of serif typefaces both before and after the start of the digital-font era. Times Modern was a condensed and bold display variant published by, among others,.

This was an ultra-premium electric 'golfball' system, intended to be used for producing high-quality office documents or copy to be photographically enlarged for small-scale printing projects. Unlike most typewriters, the Composer produced proportional type, rather than monospaced letters.

The Times's previous font was a design; James Mosley reports that it is the face Monotype sold as Series 7 or 'Modern Extended', based on typefaces.
Fonts of its kind were standard in nineteenth- and early-twentieth century newspaper printing. Now little-known, the success of its replacement has led to it sometimes being called Times Old Roman in reference to its successor and a famous cover of Monotype's trade journal Monotype Recorder which presented it under this name. Is somewhat similar. 'The Changing Newspaper' articles in the Monotype Recorder are unsigned, but Allen Hutt, who also co-authored the issue, attributed them to Morison. Exactly what direction Morison gave Lardent is uncertain: Morison said that he had given Lardent basic drawings which Lardent worked up; Lardent that Morison had only given him basic directions and some photographs as a model; see below.
Spelling modernised. Morison wrote 'fount', the usual spelling in British English at the time. 'Modern' in typography is a generic term referring to designs in the style of the nineteenth century. Times New Roman was called 'Times Old Style' in an early stage of its development. Morison continued: '– for instance.' This refers to, one of the leading American type designers of the period. Morison considered his very organic tastes in letter design somewhat florid and self-indulgent.
It will be noted in the roman style that the high serifs of the 'v' do not sit well with the lower shape of the 'i'. In his commentary on Times, Walter Tracy commented that the designers should have tested the font using words like 'divide' and 'jump' to avoid this.
Dreyfus shows proofs of the experimental recut of Perpetua with shortened descenders to allow tighter linespacing. Morison later commented that 'it stared at the reader', presumably meaning it was too wide and circular. Lardent's original drawings are according to Rhatigan lost, but were photographed.
Tracy provides a reproduction. Monotype's article on the creation of the new type provides a side-by-side comparison of text in both typefaces. Briem has written that a complicated three-way lawsuit followed in which Patel unsuccessfully claimed to have co-designed Times Millennium himself. The system returned to public attention in 2004, during the, when some documents apparently from the 1970s and presenting the future U.S.
President 's in an unfavourable light were presented by the American news network CBS. The documents were typeset in a form of Times New Roman. As the documents, having proportional spacing rather than the monospacing of almost all typewritten documents, some defenders of the documents suggested that they might have been typed using this method. It is now accepted that they were forged on a modern computer, according to digital font expert Thomas Phinney in the Linotype version of Times New Roman. References.
