Û ÛÛ    Renard was designed in 1992 by Fred Smeijers, the renowned         ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    Dutch typographer and designer of various typefaces like           ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    FF Quadraat. Renard is an interpretation of a 2-line Double        ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    Pica Roman (Gros Canon) cut by the Flemisch punchcutter            ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    Hendrik van den Keere around 1570, and shown in Plantin's          ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    folio specimen of c.1585. Van den Keere's typeface was cut         ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    in a large size for display setting: for use in choirbooks         ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    for example. Such a book would be placed in front of the           ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    choir, so it had to be legible for all the singers in poor         ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    lighting conditions. To achieve legibility the typeface is         ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    rather condensed, with a large x-height and dark overall           ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    colour. Van den Keere never cut a complete italic, so Renard's     ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    italic is a new design, made in the spirit of the period.          ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ                                                                       ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    Fred Smeijers writes about his design: "Renard belongs to the      ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    broad category of Garamonds but occupies a unique place among      ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    them. The roman descends - unlike some other Garamonds - from      ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    a clearly traceable historical origin. In other words: it's        ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    from a good pedigree with decent papers. Next to that it's the     ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    only Garamond which can rightfully claim to be 'Flemish'. Not      ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    only because of its roots, but certainly due to its almost         ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    Breughelian features. Which is something that's lacking not        ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    only in competitive revivals, but in any other Garamond."          ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ                                                                       ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    In a departure from contemporary thinking about type families,     ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    Renard is limited in its range of style variants. There is no      ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    'bold'. Instead, there are two lighter weights: Renard No2 and     ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    Renard No3. Renard No2 is intended to complement Renard No1 for    ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    use in headings. Renard No3 can serve as a definite 'light'        ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    variant with Renard No1. All variants have small capitals, old     ÛÛ Û
Û ÛÛ    style figures, related italics and various ligatures.              ÛÛ Û
