Español: Detalle de un texto compuesto en tipos móviles metálicos. Para que el texto sea legible, la imagen se ha volteado horizontalmente. El texto dice: «El veloz zorro marrón salta por encima del perro perezoso y siente como si estuviera en el séptimo cielo de la tipografía acompañado de Herrmann Zapf, el artista más afamado…». La frase sobre el zorro y el perro es en su versión original inglesa un pangrama, equivalente en función a «Whisky bueno: ¡excitad mi frágil pequeña vejez!».
