Fedra Sans Display 2 is a collection of extra heavy fonts for use in large sizes. These four fonts are optimized for compact setting, and the condensed versions are designed to help designers deal with headlines of variable length.
While Display 1 includes 300 upper case ligatures, each version of Display 2 includes over 800 lower case ligatures which are accessible as discretionary ligatures (in OpenType-savvy applications) or as individual glyphs in Expert sets.
Fedra Sans Display 2 is ideally suited for large headline settings where a strong, contemporary appearance is desired. Since they share the vertical proportions, these headline fonts can be used in combination with other Fedra fonts, in particular with Fedra Sans Display 1.
