ABOUT







Renate Weise

Freelance artist who studied in Mainz, Germany. Designer of the display font Linotype Charon (1999). She also made Scriptuale LT (2003). Claudio Piccinnini complained that this design has some roots in Post Antiqua (Herbert Post, 1932, now a Berthold face), and in particular that the Linotype blurb does not mention Post Antiqua. Dan Reynolds (then Linotype) replied in a more or less legalistic manner, avoiding the ethical issue of not mentioning sources.
