字體屬性：
Volta是20世紀50年代的一種健壯的字體。Bauer字體鑄造廠的設計師Walter Baum和Konrad Bauer在1955年設計瞭這種字體傢族，重新審視瞭世紀之交的時尚風格。Volta的字母的形式類似於那些在New Transitional Serifs字體，如Cheltenham和Century。New Transitional Serifs是根據Didone（即Bodoni）樣式字體開發的，更能體現19世紀晚期的時代精神，而且是對新技術的版式調整。早在大規模生產時期，20世紀初的印刷工人就不得不使用更便宜的材料來印刷。New Transitional Serifs健壯的字形是為瞭彌補這一點而設計的，但它們本身也是一些巧妙的小發明。
從一開始，New Transitional Serifs字體就被廣告客戶采用。它們的健壯性也使它們幾乎可以用於所有大小。Volta的設計特別考慮瞭廣告展示的使用。Volta字母的x高度比襯線字體平均值高。建議Volta隻用於12點以上的較短文本。Volta字體有四種不同的字體樣式: Regular，Medium，Medium Italic和Bold。
Volta is a robust typeface from the 1950s. A revisit to styles that were en vogue at the turn of the century, Bauer type foundry designers Walter Baum and Konrad Bauer designed this type family in1955. The form of Volta’s letters are similar to those in New Transitional Serif typefaces, like Cheltenham and Century . Developed after the Didone (i.e., Bodoni) style types, New Transitional Serifs speak more to the zeitgeist of the late 19th Cntury, and were typographic adaptations to it’s newer technologies. Already in the period of mass production, typographers and printers at the dawn of the 20th Century had to cope with larger print runs on cheaper materials. The robust letterforms of New Transitional Serifs were designed to compensate for this, but they were also ingenious little inventions in their own right.
Form the beginning, the new, peculiar forms of New Transitional Serif letters were adopted for use by advertisers. Their robustness also allowed them to be used in virtually all sizes. Volta was designed especially with advertising display usage in mind. The x-height of Volta’s letters is higher than average for serif faces. It is recommended that Volta be used exclusively for shorter tracks of text, above 12 point. Headlines look dashing set in Volta. Four different font styles are available for the Volta typeface: Regular, Medium, Medium Italic, and Bold."
