Caslon is the name given to serif typefaces designed by William Caslon I (c. 1692–1766) in London, or inspired by his work. Caslon worked as an engraver of punches, the masters used to stamp the moulds or matrices used to cast metal type. Caslon is an Old Style serif typeface originally designed by William Caslon in 1722. A popular saying of typesetters is “When in doubt, use Caslon.” I think it’s awesome that a typeface that originated in the early eighteenth century and that was used for the Declaration of Independence, continues to be popular on the web.

Caslon is a good font for body text. It is used quite a lot in magazines, journals, books or as a corporate typeface.

The history of Caslon

William Caslon I was an English gunsmith and designer of typefaces. Around 1720 he created an extended set of serif typefaces. These, as well as all of their consecutive revivals, are referred to as Caslon. Among those revivals are two Adobe versions, called Adobe Caslon (1990) and Adobe Caslon Pro (which includes an extended character set). ITC and a number of other foundries also made typefaces that either are pretty close to the originals or loosely based on them.

Trivia

Benjamin Franklin was not only a scientist and one of the founding fathers of the United States of America. He was also a printer and he liked the fonts made by William Caslon so much that he hardly ever used any other typeface.

There is a Wikipedia page which lists the various versions of Caslon out there. For font lovers, the Typophile wiki is probably a more interesting read.
