About TorniaiSansUT Typeface Bold Mac (archived)

TorniaiSansUT Bold for Mac was the bold weight of the Torniai Sans type family, a sans-serif typeface 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 style for Macintosh, sold as a single font. Bold is the weight most designers reach for to create hierarchy: subheadings, key words, buttons and labels that need to stand out from regular text without becoming as heavy as a display weight.

Torniai Sans came in five weights – Light, Regular, Bold, Heavy and Black – each with a matching italic. The same styles were sold for Windows, alongside complete family packs and an old-style figures version (TorniaiSansOsfUT).

Unifonts sold around 1,100 fonts in Type 1 and TrueType formats. Its website is no longer online, so this font can no longer be licensed. This page is kept as a historical record.
