“The original Neuzeit-Grotesk seemed to have been forgotten until it was resurrected by the DIN (German Institute for Standardization) in 1970. Defined as DIN 30640 the regular weight as well as the medium condensed were redrawn for the purpose of “lettering for printing”. All of the characters were made slightly wider, descenders became longer, and the previous alternates of ‘a’ and ‘u’ became part of the standard character set.” [Ulrich]
