Tarocco is a typical book face with good readability and rather tall x-height. The origin for this typeface is found in Nordisk Antikva. A typeface especially constructed with attention for the Swedish language.
Waldemar Zachrisson was determined to realize his ideas and in 1906 he began to cooperate with the foundry Genzsch & Heyse, based in Hamburg.
Some influences of Jugendt can be found and the typeface were released in 1910. It became rather popular until around 1930.
The MRF version includes 7 weights all together.
