About
DB Clariday Sans spans nine weights from Hairline to Black, with a feature set covering lining and oldstyle figures, tabular glyphs, bulleted figures, fractions, currency symbols, uppercase punctuation and arrows. Its development was guided by a real-world scientific brief, lending it a functional clarity more purposeful than a generic workhorse release. The collaboration with the California Academy of Sciences is documented in a published case study.
Classification
