pcarl – LaTeX Support for Adobe Caslon Open Face
Caslon Open Face font was desgined by Barnhart Brothers and
Spindler in 1915. It was initially called College Oldstyle and
based on Le Moreau de Jeune from G. Peignot foundry. Its relation
to the classical Caslon font family is rather distant.
Nevertheless it is a nice titling and display font.
Adobe sells an OpenType version of this font, but other versions,
including Adobe Type 1 are still available from other vendors,
including fonts.com. Note that
there are many “free” variants of this font
available for downloading on various sites; the package author
chose not to use them because their licence status is unclear.
