SMF Baskerville
[Yannis Haralambous]
Yannis Haralambous designed SMF Baskerville (1999), a math font for the Société mathématique de France. His article on the subject is Une police mathématique pour la Société Mathématique de France: le SMF Baskerville, Cahiers GUTenberg, vol. 32, 1999, pp. 5-19. Yannis writes: SMF Baskerville is an attempt to make Greek letters matching Latin italic Baskerville ones. Many letters have been inspired by the design of the Porson Greek typeface. The variant pi is drawn as the author learned it in primary school: with a big curly stroke, instead of the horizontal bar found in other typefaces. The capital letters have been inspired by Adobe Mathematical Pi. |
