I don’t think Baltica is very legible, even if it fits the style.
It is based on Candida, which I find quite legible especially in small texts for German. It is for example used by the German Magazine "Focus", you can see an example here (from "Focus Schule"): http://news.elli-e.de/Focus2000.jpg
Thank you! I tried a slab serif as body font only once (can’t remember which), for a book that I typeset during vocational school, and I wouldn’t try it again.
However, I don't know how legible its cyrillic characters are.
Cyrillic is illegible per se ;-) Seriously, I find Cyrillic text always looks like in all small caps, besides me still not used to reading it.
Anyway, I have no objections against a sans serif like Journal!
Thank you ;-) For now I decided to use just PT Serif plus PT Sans. Everything that I tried yet in „historic“ looks didn’t please my eyes. Greetlings, Hraban --- http://www.fiee.net/texnique/ http://wiki.contextgarden.net https://www.cacert.org (I'm an assurer)
