Design concept
Delvard is a low-contrast, somewhat wider sans serif that is extremely readable at smaller sizes, making it suitable for setting any kind of text, while its multiple alternate capitals are great for display purposes. Delvard draws from late 19th-century art nouveau posters, using the elevated crossbars, angled segments and sinuous curves associated with lettering of the period.
Proportional weights
Delvard Display comes with five optical weights, which form a proportional system that allows for varying type size while maintaining even stroke width. Try it directly in the Delvard Weight Calculator. In this way Delvard enables subtle shifts in the hierarchy of information while remaining visually harmonious.

Standard Ligatures
liga
Standard ligatures are those which are designed to improve the readability of certain letter pairs. For example, when this feature is activated, typing ‘f’ and ‘i’ will automatically produce the ‘fi’ ligature. Using ligatures does not affect the spelling and hyphenation of your text in any way. - ->->
Arrow formation
dlig
The discretionary ligature feature creates real arrows when you type the combination -> (right arrow), <- (left arrow), -^ (up arrow) or ^- (down arrow). - 1919
Proportional Old-style Figures
onum, pnum
Typotheque fonts contain various styles of numerals within one font. Proportional Lining Figures come standard in all our headline and newspaper fonts. Their proportions are specifically designed to work well with capital letters (for example, in headlines). The proportional Old-style Figures feature changes standard figures to Old-style Figures which work well in running text, as they have the same proportions as lower case letters with their ascenders and descenders. - 1919
Tabular Lining Figures
lnum, tnum
Tabular figures are for use in tables where numerals need to be aligned vertically. Tabular figures are available as a OpenType feature and have a fixed width in all weights. Typotheque fonts include both Lining and Old-style Tabular figures. - 1919
