Vox-ATypI classification

The classification by Vox (French Classification typographique de Vox - ATypI ) is an international system for font classification in typography from 1954, developed by Maximilien Vox.

It is the officially approved by the Association Typographic International ( ATypI ) supported principle and was adopted in 1967 as a British Standard. In Germany the classification of the documents is carried out according to DIN 16518 officially from 1964, based on the Vox Klassikation, but works with other generic terms ( here in brackets).
