About

Libre Baskerville is a serif font family designed for body text, featuring a taller x-height, wider counters, and reduced contrast compared to its 1941 American Type Founder's Baskerville inspiration. These adjustments enhance legibility on digital screens, making it well suited for reading at around 16px size. It supports Latin and Latin Extended subsets and includes multiple weights and italic styles.
