<p>Libre Caslon Text is optimized for web body text (typically set at 16px).

Libre Caslon Display (coming soon) is optimized for web headlines.</p>

<p>There are already lots of digital Caslon's revivals, and lots of
|
||
|
Caslon-esque fonts. Some are very good. But none of them was truly made for
|
||
|
the web. While they look very good when printed on paper, they render very
|
||
|
small when used for web body text on the screen.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>Libre Caslon Text, instead, was specifically tailored to be used for web
|
||
|
body text (typically set at 16px). It can be used at very small sizes and will
|
||
|
still be readable on your website.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>Another big difference is that pretty much all other digital Caslons
|
||
|
revivals are based on 18th Century specimens by William Caslon I and William
|
||
|
Caslon II. Libre Caslon, instead, is based on hand lettering artist
|
||
|
Caslon interpretations typical of 1950s advertising.</p>
