[Member] December 13, 2011 Share December 13, 2011 If someone would be so kind as to post Salvo Serif and/or Salvo Sans it would be much appreciated. Thanks. Link to comment https://www.design.rocks/topic/16091-fb-salvo-sans-and-serif/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Member] December 13, 2011 Share December 13, 2011 if you check the FB thread it has already been posted under the name Boomer sans and Boomer serif. For some reason FB changed the name but it is the same fonts.

[Member] December 13, 2011 Share December 13, 2011 Objection! I do not think they are the same fonts. The FB Boomer I downloaded from Lazy Vampire's share (http://pilo.me/showthread.php?27-Font-Bureau-FB&p=18665#post18665) has a bizarre glyph set (1/3 instead of German Eszett; 5/8 instead of quote single and so on) and for that reason is simply useless: Whereas FB Salvo seems to have all the (correct) glyphs: http://www.fontbureau.com/fonts/SalvoSans/characters/ Link to comment https://www.design.rocks/topic/16091-fb-salvo-sans-and-serif/#findComment-46548 Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Member] December 14, 2011 Share December 14, 2011 I am just going by what is said on the FB website. Cyrus Highsmith designed Salvo Sans & Salvo Serif (originally called Boomer Sans & Boomer Serif) as one series to tie the design of AARP The Magazine to AARP The Bulletin and AARP Segunda Juventud.

[Member] December 14, 2011 Share December 14, 2011 Boomer was a custom font and never contained any OpenType features. The OT version that's been shared is original but it's just a simple conversion from the Type 1 version. Salvo is the retail release and it contains tabular figures, etc. Link to comment https://www.design.rocks/topic/16091-fb-salvo-sans-and-serif/#findComment-46552 Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Member] December 14, 2011 Share December 14, 2011 Yes, but the point of the matter are the missing glyphs in Boomer, what makes it useless for text (unless you are a bookkeeper).

[Member] December 14, 2011 Share December 14, 2011 Calling Boomer "useless for text" is wildly inaccurate. It's being used everyday for text by dozens of magazines and newspapers all around the world.
