June was always a strange baby that was not made for copy first. But for some reason Martin Farren Lee, the former art director of Arena magazine used it in an art catalogue in 5 pt and it still worked fine. Considering the massive x-height it sounds strange. Years ago I had a dispute about June in Typophile with Hrant (the guy who spends his life in Typophile) where he insited that the x-height of June is fare to big. W-magazine and Harvey Nichols magazine are still using it. In copy you should not get heavier than Heavy. Extrabold and Ultrabold work best in display. NewJuneSerif         |
