Its name is an acronym for Egenolff-Berner-Garamond which refers to the fact that the letter forms are taken from the Egenolff-Berner specimen printed in 1592. Implementation HistoryIn 2011 the Austrian designer Georg Mayr-Duffner[1] released the EB Garamond under the Open Font License. Mayr-Duffner took the letterforms from a scan of a specimen known as the “Berner specimen” which was printed in 1592 by Conrad Berner, son-in-law of Christian Egenolff and his successor at the Egenolff print office. It shows Garamont's roman and Granjon's italic fonts at different sizes. The Greek characters are based on Robert Granjon's work as well. In addition the font includes OpenType features such as swash italic capitals and schoolbook alternates.[2] Duffner's intention was to include multiple optical sizes. As of 2014 his implementation included fonts based on the 8 and 12 point forms from the 1592 specimen, but lacked the bold font faces. As Georg Mayr-Duffner couldn't complete the bold weights for personal reasons, Google commissioned the Spanish type designer Octavio Pardo[3] to continue the project. As of 2018 Pardo's implementation includes 5 weights (Regular, Medium, Semi-Bold, Bold and Extra-Bold), both in regular and italic style. Technical DetailsMayr-Duffner implemented the EB Garamond originally in FontForge using the SFDIR and UFO format. Octavio Pardo switched to the proprietary font editor Glyphs that supports multiple master fonts. Pardo's implementation is hence based on two masters, Regular and Bold. The other weights are generated from the masters. The letter forms and the kerning of Pardo's Regular are identical with Mayr-Duffner's EB Garamond 12. The source of the fonts is drawn with cubic Bézier curves, thus the OTF-version (CFF-style) version of the compiled fonts should be preferred over the TTF-version, as TTF requires quadratic Bézier curves which have to be generated by lossy conversion during the compilation from the source files. EBGaramond-MathsEBGaramond-Maths is a package for LaTeX that provides a version of the EB Garamond 12 for mathematics. Its maintainer is Clea F. Rees.[4] Garamond-MathGaramond-Math is an additional OpenType font file for the EB Garamond family containing symbols for mathematics. The file is provided by Yuansheng Zhao.[5] OpenType FeaturesAs of 2018, EB Garamond includes the following OpenType features:
The feature list and additional information can be obtained by tools like otfinfo (e.g. ReceptionThe prominent typeface designer Erik Spiekermann described the EB Garamond as “one of the best open source fonts”.[6] Availability
LaTeXAs Classic LaTeX FontEB Garamond is also distributed via the CTAN mirrors as LaTeX font package.[9] Therefore, it can be easily applied to LaTeX based documents by adding Through XeTeXNowadays LaTeX supports the 3 smartfont technologies OpenType, AAT and Graphite directly through XeTeX, which has to be activated in one's LaTeX editor. Using the editor LyX, this can be done by checking a box under LyX > Document > Settings > […] use XeTeX. This means adding In order to access the smart font features of EB Garamond, some code has to be added to the document preamble. E.g. to set EB Garamond as the document main font using old style figures and the OpenType Stylistic Set 6 (long tailed Q), the following code can be used: \\usepackage{fontspec}\\setmainfont{EB Garamond}[Numbers={OldStyle,Proportional},RawFeature={+ss06}] Another method to achieve the same result is the following specification: \\usepackage{fontspec}\\setmainfont{EB Garamond}[RawFeature={+onum,+pnum,+ss06}] References1. ^Article about Georg Mayr-Duffner at Luc Devroyes’s typedesign encyclopedia {{free and open-source typography}}2. ^{{cite web|last1=Duffner|first1=Georg|title=EB Garamond specimen|url=http://www.georgduffner.at/ebgaramond/design.html|accessdate=19 September 2015}} 3. ^Article about Octavio Pardo at Luc Devroyes’s typedesign encyclopedia 4. ^CTAN mirror for EBGaramond-Maths 5. ^[https://github.com/YuanshengZhao/Garamond-Math Yuansheng Zhao's GitHub repository providing Garamond-Math] 6. ^{{cite web|last1=Spiekermann|first1=Erik|author-link=Erik Spiekermann|title=Twitter post|url=https://twitter.com/espiekermann/status/434362030552657920|website=Twitter|accessdate=12 February 2015}} 7. ^[https://github.com/georgd/EB-Garamond Georg Mayr-Duffner’s GitHub repository] 8. ^[https://github.com/octaviopardo/EBGaramond12/tree/master/fonts Octavio Pardo’s EB Garamond repository] 9. ^EB Garamond distribution at a CTAN mirror 9 : Open-source typefaces|Latin-script typefaces|Greek typefaces|Cyrillic typefaces|IPA typefaces|Typefaces with optical sizes|Typefaces with text figures|Free software Unicode typefaces|Typefaces and fonts introduced in 2011 |
