About TorniaiSansOsfUT Typeface BlackItalic Mac (archived)

TorniaiSansOsfUT Black Italic for Mac was the heaviest slanted old-style figures style of Torniai Sans, sold by Unifonts (also known as Unitype), a small font vendor run by Victor de Castro from Monroe, New York.

This page covers the Black Italic style for Macintosh, sold as a single font. It gave Mac poster and magazine designers a bold, energetic italic in which large dates and numbers kept the flowing, lowercase-like shapes of old-style figures.

The Osf family included Light, Regular, Bold and Black with italics, sold for Mac and Windows; TorniaiSansUT offered lining figures instead.

Unifonts' website is no longer online, so this font can no longer be licensed. This page is kept as a historical record.
