About

Designed by Tagir Safayev at ParaType (then ParaGraph) in 1995, Olga is rooted in casual pen handwriting rather than formal calligraphic tradition. Western and Central European character support was added in 2011 by Gennady Fridman. Its informal character makes it a practical choice for advertising, packaging and children's publications.
