Old Standard字体复现了一种特殊的现代主义（古典派）衬线字体风格，该风格在19世纪末至20世纪初的各类出版物中极为常见，但后期几乎被完全弃用。然而这种字体仍具备至少两大优势：

其一，它被视为科技论文（尤其是社会科学与人文学科）排版的优选，因其特有的视觉特征容易让人联想到人们启蒙时期所读的古籍；

其二，希腊文与西里尔文字体中最精美的范例均基于古典风格设计，因此对这些文字体系而言，"现代"字体比任何当代设计（如基于Times字体的设计）都更为合适。

选择"Old Standard"这一名称是为了与苏联排版界广泛使用的"Obyknovennaya Novaya"（新标准）字体形成对照——后者呈现的是同属现代主义风格但略有差异的变体。尽管这个名称看似缺乏新意，但对于复兴20世纪初最普遍的字体而言，无疑是恰如其分的选择。

Old Standard reproduces a specific type of Modern (classicist) style of serif typefaces, very commonly used in various editions of the late 19th and early 20th century, but almost completely abandoned later. However, this lettertype still has at least two advantages:

it can be considered a good choice for typesetting scientific papers, especially on social and humanitarian sciences, as its specific features are closely associated in people's eyes with old books they learned on;

the most beautiful examples of Greek and Cyrillic lettertypes were all based on the classicist style, so for those scripts, "Modern" fonts are much more appropriate than any contemporary (e. g. Times-based) designs.

The name "Old Standard" was selected as opposed to the "Obyknovennaya Novaya" ("New Standard") typeface, widely used in Soviet typography, which represents another, slightly different type of the same Modern style. Of course this name doesn't look very original, but it seems to be a good choice for a revival of the most common lettertype of the early 20th century.
