1931年，在Morison寫瞭一篇文章批評《時代》（The Times）印刷質量差且印刷落後於時代之後，《泰晤士報》（The Times of London）委托Stanley Morison和Monotype Corporation設計一款新的文本字體。新設計由Stanley Morison指導，並由《時代》（The Times）廣告部門的藝術傢Victor Larden繪制。Morison使用較舊的字體Plantin作為其設計的基礎，但為瞭提高可讀性並節約空間而對其進行瞭修改（這對於報紙而言始終是非常重要的）。由於報紙使用的舊字體被稱為Times Old Roman，因此Morison的修訂版本就成瞭 “ Times New Roman”。《泰晤士報》於1932年10月首次使用瞭這款新的字體，一年後，這種設計被用於商業銷售。Linotype版本（簡稱為“ Times”），已針對排鑄技術進行瞭優化，盡管基本設計上的差異很細微。《泰晤士報》使用的字體非常成功，它使用的新聞紙的等級比大多數報紙都高。更好，更白的紙張增強瞭新字體的高對比度以及清晰的襯線，並產生瞭一種閃閃發光的現代風格的外觀。更好、更白的紙張增強瞭新字體的高對比度和銳利的襯線，創造瞭一個閃閃發光的，現代的外觀。1972年，Walter Tracy為倫敦時報設計瞭Times Europa，這是一個更加強健的版本，需要用它來滿足報紙印刷的最新需求：更快的印刷速度和更便宜的紙張。在美國， Times字體傢族自20世紀40年代以來一直普遍用於雜志和書籍字體。在美國，《泰晤士報》字體傢族由於Times的多功能性和可讀性，它在世界各地仍然很受歡迎。而且由於它是大多數計算機和數字打印機上的標準字體，因此它已經成為辦公室裡普遍熟悉的主力字體。Times、Times Europa，以及Times New Roman都特別適合用於提案、年度報告、辦公室信件、雜志以及報紙。
Linotype提供瞭許多版本：
Times New Roman是Times的通用版本，以前用作Linotype熱金屬整行鑄排機。Roman、Italic、Bold、Bold Italic這四種基本字重是大部分打印機中使用的標準字體。還有小型大寫字母、老式數字、音標和中歐字符。
Times New Roman Ten是專門為較小文本（12pt及以下）設計的版本；其字符更寬，極細線有點粗壯。Times 10具有許多適合拉丁排印的字重，以及幾個適合中歐、西裡爾和希臘排字的字重。
Times New Roman Eighteen為標題版本，非常適合大小為18pt或更大的磅值。字符被巧妙地縮窄瞭，而且極細線也更細。”
In 1931, The Times of London commissioned a new text type design from Stanley Morison and the Monotype Corporation, after Morison had written an article criticizing The Times for being badly printed and typographically behind the times. The new design was supervised by Stanley Morison and drawn by Victor Lardent, an artist from the advertising department of The Times. Morison used an older typeface, Plantin, as the basis for his design, but made revisions for legibility and economy of space (always important concerns for newspapers). As the old type used by the newspaper had been called Times Old Roman," Morison’s revision became "Times New Roman." The Times of London debuted the new typeface in October 1932, and after one year the design was released for commercial sale. The Linotype version, called simply "Times," was optimized for line-casting technology, though the differences in the basic design are subtle. The typeface was very successful for the Times of London, which used a higher grade of newsprint than most newspapers. The better, whiter paper enhanced the new typeface’s high degree of contrast and sharp serifs, and created a sparkling, modern look. In 1972, Walter Tracy designed Times Europa for The Times of London. This was a sturdier version, and it was needed to hold up to the newest demands of newspaper printing: faster presses and cheaper paper. In the United States, the Times font family has enjoyed popularity as a magazine and book type since the 1940s. Times continues to be very popular around the world because of its versatility and readability. And because it is a standard font on most computers and digital printers, it has become universally familiar as the office workhorse. Times?, Times? Europa, and Times New Roman? are sure bets for proposals, annual reports, office correspondence, magazines, and newspapers.
Linotype offers many versions of this font:
Times? is the universal version of Times, used formerly as the matrices for the Linotype hot metal line-casting machines. The basic four weights of roman, italic, bold and bold italic are standard fonts on most printers. There are also small caps, Old style Figures, phonetic characters, and Central European characters.
Times? Ten is the version specially designed for smaller text (12 point and below); its characters are wider and the hairlines are a little stronger. Times Ten has many weights for Latin typography, as well as several weights for Central European, Cyrillic, and Greek typesetting.
Times? Eighteen is the headline version, ideal for point sizes of 18 and larger. The characters are subtly condensed and the hairlines are finer."
