Greta Sans Condensed

Greta Sans is a powerful toolbox capable of dealing with the most complex typographical situations. It is a timeless humanist sans with clear and open letterforms that are highly legible, yet also graphically distinctive to easily emphasise your message in the crowded landscape. Greta Sans comes in ten weights which, combined with its four widths (Compressed, Condensed, Normal and Expanded), create a tremendous range of possibilities.

Greta Sans is designed as a continuous optical size system. While the basic text styles (Regular) are spaced and optimised more loosely for use at small sizes, the surrounding extremes (Hairline, Black) are designed to be used as display types, and are therefore spaced and kerned tightly. The resulting spectrum then runs continuously from Display to Text to Display use. The chart shows the minimal recommended point size for each style of Greta Sans.

Each weight of Greta Sans includes nine different kinds of numerals. Proportional lining figures come as default figures in Greta Sans. It also, however, includes old-style figures, tabular numerals (both lining and old-style), small caps numerals, superior, inferior, circled and circled inverted numerals. For the running text, old-style figures work best; for capital setting, use lining figures; and for small caps, choose the specially designed Small Caps numerals applicable via OpenType layout features. When you take a licence for this font you can choose the default numeral variants inside the fonts.

Greta Symbol is a separate font that extends the Greta Sans family with a unique collection of thousands of useful symbols and alphanumerical characters available as icon fonts, assembling a collection that covers over 1,200 symbols per style. Most of the symbols come in a range of ten weights, an unprecedented example of the application of typeface family conventions to a symbol font. This comprehensive family of fonts includes arrows, pictograms, alphanumeric symbols, weather symbols, chess figurines, geometrical shapes, zodiac signs in various styles and many other surprising symbols.

Greta Sans is part of the Typotheque Multiscript font collection, supporting at least nine different writing scripts, and over four billion people worldwide. Typotheque Multiscript are fonts that cover Arabic, Armenian, Cyrillic, Devanagari, Georgian, Greek, Hebrew, Latin and Thai. Additionally, Greta Sans also supports Hangul, the writing script of Korean.
