FF Scala is an old-style serif typeface designed by Dutch typeface designer Martin Majoor in 1990 for the Muziekcentrum Vredenburg in Utrecht, the Netherlands.
 The FF Scala font family was named for the Teatro alla Scala (1776–78) in Milan, Italy.
 Like many contemporary Dutch serif faces, FF Scala is not an academic revival of a single historic typeface but shows influences of several historic models.

Minion is a serif typeface designed by Robert Slimbach in 1990 for Adobe Systems and inspired by late Renaissance-era type.
 The name comes from the traditional naming system for type sizes, in which minion is between nonpareil and brevier, with the type body 7pt in height.
 As the name suggests, it is particularly intended as a font for body text in a classical style, neutral and practical while also slightly condensed to save space.
 Slimbach described the design as having "a simplified structure and moderate proportions."
