2. Has somewhat lower contrast between thin and thick strokes
3. Is larger, which is typical for a Linotype-to-Monotype comparison;
to achieve equal x-height, Monotype Sabon must be enlarged by roughly 7%
4. Has a more angular lower case roman a and
f; note the increased curvature of the ascender in the Monotype
roman f versus the Linotype version; compare also
the cross-strokes of the f
5. May have a greater axis angle in the italic; compare the g’s
in the example shown; notice also the differences in the teardrop
terminals in this letter
6. Has that extra bit of space – almost too small to measure, yet
discernable enough – after the lower case roman a.
Or perhaps the spacing is a bit off overall. Or perhaps it’s just
my imagination...
