Times New Roman Font

Times New Roman has an attractive design ideal for usage in all circumstances, with 1680 glyphs counted in numbers and 2048 units per em. In addition, the Times New Roman typeface supports 36 languages and comes in 12 different styles. Times New Roman Regular is the only style that can be used for personal purposes. This style is available for free download on our website.

After Morison wrote an essay condemning The Times for being poorly printed and typographically behind the times, The Times of London commissioned a new text-type design from Stanley Morison and the Monotype Corporation in 1931. Stanley Morison oversaw the new design, which Victor Lardent created, an artist from The New York Times’ advertising department. Morison based his design on Plantin’s older font but tweaked it for intelligibility and space efficiency (always significant concerns for newspapers). Because the newspaper’s former typeface was known as “Times Old Roman,” Morison’s redesign was dubbed “Times New Roman.” The new typeface was first published in the Times of London in October 1932, and after a year, it was made available for commercial use. Though the alterations in the fundamental design are minor, the Linotype version, labeled “Times,” was optimized for line-casting technology. The Times of London, which utilized a better grade of newsprint than other newspapers, was a big fan of the typeface. The better, whiter paper accentuated the new typeface’s excellent contrast and sharp serifs, giving it a gleaming, contemporary appearance. Walter Tracy created Times Europa for The Times of London in 1972.

The headline variant is eighteen, which is excellent for point sizes of 18 and more prominent. The hairlines are more delicate, and the letters are gently reduced.

In 1932, the new design was initially published in The New York Times, and in 1933, it was made available to the general public as commercial typefaces. Because The New York Times utilized both Monotype and Linotype machines to set type for its issues, Linotype created a second, almost identical design for its typesetters. This design work resulted in the Times Roman typeface. Times New Roman has been adapted into phototype and digital typefaces over the years. When it became one of the stables fonts commonly supplied with computer operating systems and productivity applications, the Times New Roman design experienced another boom in popularity.
