JY Alia was created by Jack Yan in 2008–9 as a robust, honest, aldine serif typeface. It was designed to complement JY Aetna (which works best with 14-24 pt) in text (8-2 pt). For those stuck with the question.What else apart from Adobe Garamond or Bembo can I use? Alia comes to the rescue. There is an Aetna basis, with influences from Robert Granjon`s Plantin. Each font has between 2,600 (SCOSF) and 5,100 (OpenType roman) kerning pairs. Cross-platform OpenType, PC TrueType and PC PostScript Type 1 are available from launch.
