About TorniaiSansOsfUT Typeface LightItalic PC (archived)

TorniaiSansOsfUT Light Italic was the thin italic of the old-style figures version 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 Light Italic style for Windows (PC), sold as a single font. Italic old-style figures have a handwritten, flowing feel, which suits captions with dates, footnote references, epigraph citations (“Paris, 1924”) and elegant pull quotes.

The Osf family included Light, Regular, Bold and Black with italics, plus family packs and Mac editions; the standard TorniaiSansUT family used lining figures.

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