Linotype Centennial™由Adrian Frutiger设计并于1986年发布，以庆祝Linotype成立100周年。Frutiger受到Century的影响，Century是19世纪末由Linn Boyd Benton和他的儿子Morris F. Benton于为American Type Founders 公司共同设计的一款字体。Linotype Centennial在概念上与Century十分接近，但它还具有针对当代优雅和易读性的典型的Frutiger增强功能。它具有垂直应力，略微缩窄的形式，较高的x高度，以及粗细笔画之间的对比度相当高。Linotype Centennial具有多种字重，包括小型大写字母、老式数字和中欧重音符号。这款坚固、简洁且有品味的字体是书籍、杂志和报纸的绝佳之选。”

Linotype Centennial™ was designed by Adrian Frutiger and released in 1986 for the celebration of Linotype's 100th anniversary. Frutiger was influenced by Century, a type designed by Linn Boyd Benton and his son Morris F. Benton for the American Type Founders Company at the end of the nineteenth century. Linotype Centennial is quite close in concept to Century, but it also has the characteristic Frutiger enhancements for contemporary elegance and legibility. It has a vertical stress, slightly condensed forms, a tall x-height, and fairly high contrast between thick and thin strokes. Linotype Centennial is available in several weights and includes small caps, Old style Figures, and Central European accents. This sturdy, clean and tasteful font is an excellent choice for books, magazines, and newspapers."
