The fifty best-selling typefaces at MyFonts, as reported by them on January 2, 2013: #1: Proxima Nova (Mark Simonson), #2: Graublau Sans Pro (FDI), #3: Brandon Grotesque (HVD Fonts), #4: Helvetica Neue LT Std (Adobe), #5: Graublau Slab Pro (FDI), #6: Museo Sans (exljbris), #7: Bombshell Pro (Emily Lime), #8: RBNo2.1 (Rene Bieder), #9: Futura (Bitstream), #10: Trade Gothic (Linotype), #11: Thirsty Rough (Yellow Design Studio), #12: Carolyna Pro Black (Emily Lime), #13: Marat Sans (Ludwig Type), #14: Halis Grotesque (Ahmet Altun), #15: Intro (Fontfabric), #16: Chalk Hand Lettering (Fontscafe), #17: Neue Helvetica (Linotype), #18: Avenir (Linotype), #19: Akzidenz-Grotesk Std (Berthold), #20: Veneer (Yellow Design Studio), #21: Swiss 721 (Bitstream), #22: Museo Slab (exljbris), #23: Univers (Linotype), #24: Interstate (Font Bureau), #25: Hipster Script Pro (Sudtipos), #26: Mercury Script (Fenotype), #27: Geogrotesque (Emtype Foundry), #28: Thirsty Script (Yellow Design Studio), #29: Nexa (Fontfabric), #30: Centrale Sans Condensed (Typedepot), #31: News Gothic (Bitstream), #32: PF Din Text Pro (Parachute), #33: Dom Loves Mary (Correspondence Ink), #34: Neo sans (Monotype Imaging), #35: Alright Sans (Okay Type), #36: PF Centro Slab Pro (Parachute), #37: DIN Next (Linotype), #38: Mishka (Fenotype), #39: Pluto (HVD Fonts), #40: Museo (exljbris), #41: Novel Sans Rounded Pro (Atlas), #42: Aire (Lian Types), #43: Helvetica (Adobe), #44: Frutiger (Adobe), #45: ITC Avant Garde Gothic (ITC), #46: Belluccia (Correspondence Ink), #47: Adelle (TypeTogether), #48: Centrale Sans (Typedepot), #49: Sofia Pro (Mostardesign), #50: Populaire (PintassilgoPrints). Proxima Nova ends a successful year atop the charts, pushing Brandon Grotesque to #3. Graublau Sans (FDI) rose to #2 from #17 a month earlier, pulling Graublau Slab Pro up with it to #5. Mercury Script fell from #3 to #26. I can only explain such dramatic shifts as a special year-end effect in which sales are determined by other forces and a different market. There are no surprising new typefaces in the list besides Halis Grotesque (#14, Ahmet Altun), which climbed into the list from nowhere: Bombshell (#7) is still cleaning up in the script category, and the sans domination continues with Helvetica Neue, Museo Sans, RBNNo2.1 (despite its ugly name), Futura and Trade Gothic all nestled in the top ten. I will be keeping an eye on Sofia Pro (#49, Mostar Design), Centrale Sans (#30 and #48, Typedepot), and DIN Next (#37, Linotype). |
