Description:
Antykwa Toruńska (meaning just "Antiqua of Torun") is a two-element
typeface designed by Zygfryd Gardzielewski (1914–2001).

The font is mainly used for typesetting of small prints. Its
characteristic features are the widening of vertical stems at the top
and the wave-like form of some of the horizontal and diagonal lines as
well as of the serifs. Antykwa Toruńska was first cast in metal in
1960 in the Grafmasz typefoundry in Warsaw. It was produced in the
ordinary, semibold and slanted faces in sizes from 6 to 48 dd.

It has been digitized by Janusz Marian Nowacki, starting in early
1995. The first, very poor version was based on a font catalogue. It
was a very imperfect source. The next version was based on photocopies
of the original design drawings made available by Zygfryd
Gardzielewski. Version 1.0, which deserves to be called computerised
in that it was precise and reused character building elements across
the font, was released in 1998 and comprised (similarly as the
original) of three faces: upright, bold and italic.

The current version contains a greatly extended character set (e.g.,
cyrillic, greek, most often used mathematical symbols and currency
symbols, additional ligatures), as well as additional typefaces
(light, regular, medium and bold in normal and condensed widths).
