The gratuitous, butt-kissing product name of the week award goes to Warnock Pro, one of the commercial OpenType fonts (this product category is no longer an oxymoron I suppose) just squeezed out of what’s left of the Adobe type department. Taking absolutely no chances with the marketing copy, Warnock Pro is described as “a classic yet contemporary composition family that performs a wide variety of typographic tasks with elegance.” In other words, yawn. It doesn’t really inspire me to use it, let alone purchase it. Now Calcite on the other hand, at least has some personality in a vintage Fridgedaire meets latex bodysuit kind of way.
