A Series Exploring the Fonts by AG Typography Institute

How are font types designed? What balance and aesthetic do they embody? Where do they perform best in the most meaningful way? The AG Type Specimen Series seeks answers to these questions, delving into the design and application of fonts created by the AG Typography Institute.

The Choijeongho Type Specimen is an introduction to AG Choijeongho Std. Choijeongho is a Buri (serif) family font designed by Hangeul designer Choi jeong-ho, and is a digitalized version of his last original design commissioned by Ahn Sang-soo in 1988. AG Choijeongho Std. is a digital font created from Choijeongho’s original design. The book contains information on AG Choijeongho Std. features, how to calibrate the weight, and space allocation. It also contains a collection of glyphs, along with new Latin alphabet, numeral, and symbol typefaces that were created to match Hangeul.
