Huruf “Serif-Transitional” Transitional fonts fit somewhere in between moderns and old style fonts. Many of the transitionals have the same kind of readability as the old styles. However, they are based on slightly later design. While a move in the direction of the moderns may be visible in these fonts, they are still much more subtle than the moderns.
“Serif-Transitional” Example of “Transitional” are: 1. Baskerville 2. Janson 3. Caslon 4. Caledonia
Born 28. 1. 1706 in Wolverley, Worcestershire, England, died 8. 1. 1775 in Birmingham, Warwickshire, England – type designer, writing master, printer. Baskerville The Baskerville was created by John Baskerville, a type founder and printer in late eighteenth-century England. It is classified as transitional. As a matter of fact, with its generous proportions, the Baskerville appears not very different from its predecessors. But the difference between fine and bold strokes is more marked, the lower-case serifs are almost horizontal and the emphasis on the stroke widths is almost vertical. 5.

Janson Janson Roman is a classic, sophisticated serif typeface. Because of its strong legibility, it works well in small and large type sizes and also for small and large amounts of text. Janson Italic can be used to highlight information in a text block or it can be used alone to create a sophisticated look. Use for short amounts of text. 6.

“Janson” Structure of Janson:
Summary The Transitional has very pleasing letterforms in both the roman & the italic. It benefits from a fairly loose letter spacing, & its suitability as a text face is moderated by the fact that it is less economical than some Garaldes.
