About TorniaiSansOsfUT Typeface BoldItalic Mac (archived)

TorniaiSansOsfUT Bold Italic for Mac was the bold italic 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 Bold Italic style for Macintosh, sold as a single font. Mac designers used it for emphatic callouts in editorial layouts – a bold italic year in a pull quote or a highlighted statistic – without switching to tall lining 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.
