Robert Slimbach’s 25 Years of Type

Roberts work proceeds him having created some of the most important typefaces while at Adobe, my personal favourites being Myriad, Minion and Garamond. Robert has gained many awards for his work, including the Prix Charles Peignot in 1991, and numerous Type Directors Club awards. In 2006, Robert became Adobe’s first Principal Designer
