About the family


Lightizer is a tribute to a legendary Monotype colleague — Pat Lightizer — who began her career at Compugraphic Corporation and remained for 53 incredible years as the company evolved into the Monotype we know today. This design is a refined update to Compugraphic’s early digital version of a condensed book weight of Clarendon, itself derived from the bold styles originally produced in London by Robert Besley for the Fann Street Foundry in the mid-19th century. Just as Pat has been a part of the type industry’s remarkable evolution, Lightizer reflects the sophistication we expect from today’s fonts. This font is a crisp, clear, and compact display style for signage, headlines, advertising graphics, and more. OpenType alternates help to resolve tricky letter combinations, and it supports 360 languages, which makes this a versatile choice for a global audience.
