  • \section*{Background}
  • The fonts in this package were derived ultimately from the collection of fonts commissioned by Edward Tufte for his own books, and released in 2015 as {\tt ET-Bembo} under the MIT license. (The sources for that collection were fonts using the family name ET-book.) That collection was enhanced in 2019 under the name {\tt XETBook} by Daniel Benjamin Miller, and it is his package which was the starting point for {\tt ETbb}, where the {\tt bb} denotes the Berry abbreviation for Bembo. The final section of this document makes a detailed comparison with the earlier {\tt fbb} package, which is also Bembo-like, derived from {\tt Cardo.} The most significant differences are that {\tt ETbb} has a regular upright that is about 20\% darker than the corresponding {\tt fbb}, and its ascender height is noticeably less. These differences make {\tt ETbb} have a less spindly appearance that is closer in spirit to the print produced by traditional metal versions of Bembo.
  • \section*{Package properties}
  • The package makes a number of changes to the {\tt XETBook} fonts:
  • \begin{itemize}
  • \item The released version of ET-Bembo lacks kerning tables---a serious omission---rectified in {\tt ETbb}.
  • \item
  • The scale has been increased by 3.36\% so that the x-height of the upright regular face is 431, very close to Computer Modern and Libertine.
  • \item The lining figures in some faces were reduced so as to be a bit less than the cap-heights.
  • \item The lining figures in {\tt XETBook} were proportional rather than tabular. I've added new tabular lining and old-style figures.
  • \item Added superior letters and figures to all faces. E.g., \verb|\textsu{ABCabc123}| renders as \textsu{ABCabc123}.
  • \item Added inferior figures to all faces with baseline at -112{\tt em}.
  • \item Added denominator figures to all faces with baseline at 0{\tt em}.
  • \item The originals comprised glyphs in the Adobe Standard Encoding, forming a rather sparse subset of the T1 encoding. I've added accented and composite glyphs that provide complete coverage of the T1 encoding as well as many glyphs required in the orthography of a number Eastern European countries.
  • \item Prior to version 1.02, coverage of TS$1$ encoding was meager. The coverage is now close to full. (See the table at the end of this document.)
  • \item Small caps have been added to all faces.
  • \item There is a new glyph for the German capital sharp S ({\altr\char223}, \textit{gro\ss es eszett}, {\tt U+1E9E}), approved in 2017 for optional use in German orthography. Small cap versions are also provided.
  • \item The glyph capital P has been changed from its default closed shape, as used in almost all modern digital renderings of Bembo, to the more historically accurate open shape. See, for example, the reproduction of Pietro Bembo's \textit{De Aetna} at \\

  • \section*{Package options and macros}
  • This package has most of the same features and options as the {\tt fbb} package and even includes the {\tt altP} option, though that has no effect because the alternate P shapes in {\tt fbb} are the default in {\tt ETbb}.
  • In the original {\tt XETBook}, the dollar and cent currency symbols were oldstyle. I've added the new style symbols and made them the default, but option {\tt osdollar} to {\tt ETbb} changes back to the oldstyle symbols.
  • \textbf{New in version $1.05$:} A swash version of Q has been added to all faces. You may enable it globally using option {\tt swashQ} to {\tt ETbb}, or specify it locally with the macro \verb|\Qswash|, which renders as \Qswash. This document did not specify option {\tt swashQ}. If you had enabled it globally, you have access to the ordinary Q with the macro \verb|\Qnoswash|. You may find it simpler to use the macro \verb|\altQ| which renders Q as ordinary Q if you had specified option {\tt swashQ} and as \altQ\ if not.
  • Text figures may be selected from four types:
