The 2013 year end issue of Bloomberg Businessweek featured a long section of very dense spreads of hard data from various industries, showing a snapshot of the current state of many companies. Creative director Richard Turley commissioned an Agate version of Neue Haas Grotesk in a number of duplexed weights, to cram tons of information into this section. Compared to the existing Text version, which is drawn for use around 8pt to 12pt, the Agate, drawn for use at 4pt to 6pt, has a larger x-height, smaller cap height, looser spacing overall, and ink traps to counteract the effects of ink on paper, which has a dramatic effect on text set at such small sizes.

This was originally created for Bloomberg Businessweek, for a special issue on the 2012 US presidential election, and was later extended for general use in info graphics. The idea was to make text set in the Mono look and feel like unfiltered data.
