About
Libre Caslon Text adapts the classic Caslon model for sustained reading at smaller sizes, with spacing and weight adjusted to maintain comfort across paragraphs of body copy. Its humanist letterforms lend editorial and literary projects a sense of tradition without feeling archaic. Used in tandem with Libre Caslon Display, it forms a well-considered optical size pairing for print and screen.
