See Linotype machine. Also, it'd be nice if the article included font samples as images so that people who don't have the fonts can see what they look like. sneakums 15:50, 18 August 2005 (UTC)

Is the comment about Redwall really necessary? I mean, it's been used in zillions of books, and the Harry Potter series (in the realm of fantasy that is, although I'm not 100% sure). It just seems unjustified given the huge popularity of this font almost everywhere. Leon... 05:25, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] When was Palatino created?

If I use the Microsoft typography "FontProperties" extension on the Palatino Linotype OpenType font which ships with MS Office these days, the font claims to have been designed in 1950 by Zapf, not 1948...?--feline1 17:00, 8 June 2006 (UTC)
