Option 3 – typeface
News Gothic is a realist sans-serif typeface designed 
by Morris Fuller Benton, and released by the American 
Type Founders (ATF) in 1908. News Gothic is similar in 
proportion and structure to Franklin Gothic also designed 
by Benton.
News Gothic, like other Benton sans serif typefaces, 
follows the grotesque model. Shapes which distinguish it 
from the neo-grotesque are the two-story lowercase a and 
the two-story lowercase g. Also distinctive are the blunt 
terminus at the apex of the lowercase t, and the location 
of the tail of the uppercase Q completely outside the bowl. 
News Gothic BT
The letter forms are compact, and descenders are shallow. 
The typeface differs from other realist sans-serifs in its 
organic shapes and subtle transitions of stroke width, all 
contributing to a less severe, humanist tone of voice. For 
much of the twentieth century News Gothic was used in 
Abcdefghijklmn

newspaper and magazine publishing.

123
News Gothic is available in standard, condensed, and extra 
condensed widths, each with a matching bold and italic. 
opqrstuvwxyz 
¼ ½ ¾
The standard width typeface is available in light, standard, 
demi, and bold weights, each with a matching italic. The 
condensed and extra condensed widths are ideal for use in 
tables and parts lists.
ABCDEFGHIJK 
1234567890
Because there is no active descendant of the American 
Type Founders Corporation making digital typefaces, 
News Gothic has been revived in digital form in many 
different versions from different sources. Adobe, Monotype,

Linotype, Bitstream and The Font Bureau all have their 
own versions.
The use of the term “Gothic” is an early twentieth century

misnomer for sans-serifs, found mostly in the United States 
and Canada. In the UK the term Gothic is occasionally 
used, but more often the term “grotesque” is used for sans-
serifs. In Germany the term “grotesk” is used.
