Editorial (news) font classification?
Posted: Fri Aug 17, 2018 3:10 pm
This is an example of a type of font commonly used in newspapers and other editorial, text-heavy publications. One of its features is ball terminals. I am wondering if there is a name for these types of editorial fonts? (Beyond the fact that they're "serifs," of course!) The attached image is from a 1983 L.A. Times and font engines have identified the closest matches as Times LT Std Bold, Thames Serial Bold, Pelham DT Bold, etc. But what I'm looking for is some sort of categorical name for these types of editorial fonts with ball terminals, etc. Thanks!
