Bookmania (2011) is a revival of Bookman Oldstyle (1901) and the Bookmans of the 1960s, but with all the features you would expect in a modern digital font family.
Feature Summary:
– 5 weights: Light, Regular, Semibold, Bold, and Black
– Matching italics for all weights
– Matching small caps for all weights*
– Over 680 swash characters*
– 35 optional ligatures*
– Lining and old style figures (both proportional and tabular)*
– Full “f” ligature set*
– Alternate characters*
– Automatic fractions*
– Automatic ordinals*
– Extended language support (Unicode support required), including all the swash and alternate characters
Important: Features of Bookmania marked with an asterisk (*) require OpenType advanced typography support in order to work (swashes, especially). It works best with applications like Adobe Creative Suite and QuarkXPress. In other applications, features may be inaccessible. A “glyph” palette or window is required to access all but the basic swash variants. Check your application’s user guide for availability of these features.
