New Millennium Sans Font Family was designed by Lars Bergquist and published by Three Islands Press. New Millennium Sans contains 4 styles and family package options. New Millennium Sans is one of three font families that share a common name, a common design philosophy, a common x-height, and basic character shapes. (The others are New Millennium and New Millennium Linear; all three work well together.) New Millennium Sans is a “humanist sans” in the Optima vein — but without certain quirks (e.g., the “waisted” strokes) of the latter. It has proportional lining numerals whose height comes midway between the lower- and uppercases. (The bold styles are identical to those of New Millennium.) New Millennium Sans might be used in books, periodicals, or any large text blocks where a legible sans is desired.
