URW Antiqua was designed exclusively for URW by Prof. Hermann Zapf in 1985. At the same time, Zapf designed this typeface to go with URW Grotesk.

At that time, we were working with a large German publishing house (Axel Springer) on type design solutions to replace certain of their newspaper fonts. Test pages of large German newspapers (e.g. Bildzeitung) were printed with URW Grotesk and URW Antiqua font families. For reasons not disclosed to us, the project was dropped and Springer never used URW Grotesk and URW Antiqua for that purpose.
