You will find alternate letters with swashes within this extended character set, as well as all the accented glyphs necessary to support more than 200 Latin-based languages.. Historical Background The (French) Renaissance-influenced typeface started as Moritz Kleinsorge’s graduation project within the “Expert Class Type design” course of the Plantin Institute for Typography, located in the famous Museum Plantin-Moretus in Antwerp, Belgium. There, Moritz Kleinsorge decided to create a revival of Robert Granjon’s “Ascendonica Romain”, described as “a beautiful face; typical of Granjon’s mature style” in the inventory list of available material. “To touch punches and matrices cut by Robert Granjon back in 1567 was an invaluable inspiration”, Moritz explains. Over time, the typeface moved away from being a true revival. Rather, it evolved into a Granjon-inspired typeface. That typeface is now available as Allrounder Antiqua..
