In its most general sense, the term ‘world’ refers to the totality of entities, to the whole of reality or to everything that is. The nature of the world has been conceptualized differently in different fields. Some conceptions see the world as unique while others talk of a ‘plurality of worlds’. Some treat the world as one simple object while others analyze the world as a complex made up of many parts. In scientific cosmology the world or universe is commonly defined as ’the totality of all space and time; all that is, has been, and will be’. Theories of modality, on the other hand, talk of possible worlds as complete and consistent ways how things could have been. Phenomenology, starting from the horizon of co-given objects present in the periphery of every experience, defines the world as the biggest horizon or the ‘horizon of all horizons’. In philosophy of mind, the world is commonly contrasted with the mind as that which is represented by the mind. Theology conceptualizes the world in relation to God, for example, as God’s creation, as identical to God or as the two being interdependent. In religions, there is often a tendency to downgrade the material or sensory world in favor of a spiritual world to be sought through religious practice. A comprehensive representation of the world and our place in it, as is commonly found in religions, is known as a worldview. Cosmogony is the field that studies the origin or creation of the world while eschatology refers to the science or doctrine of the last things or of the end of the world.

November Slab Compressed is a functional, no-nonsense addition to a rational, utilitarian family inspired by street signage. Its blocky serifs create stable, robust letterforms that are surprisingly elegant in its thinnest variations, making it well suited to print purposes. Since the robust serifs give blocks of text a denser, darker appearance, many characters had to be adapted to the new stroke structure. This is most visible in the design of the double-storey ‘g’ that reflects the complexity of a slab serif. Other letterforms were designed without serifs in order to maintain suitable letter widths.

November Slab Compressed, Design Concept

Design Concept

Each weight of November Slab Compressed includes nine different kinds of numerals. Proportional lining figures come as default figures in November Slab Compressed. 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 running text, old-style figures work best; for use in capital setting, use lining figures, and with the 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 your own default numeral variant.

Like the original <a href="https://www.typotheque.com/fonts/november">November</a>, November Slab is also available in three widths and nine weights. The forms of the condensed and compressed versions had to be rethought in the darkest cuts, where there is no room for heavy serifs. The symmetrical serifs used in the light and medium weights were exchanged for unexpected asymmetric forms, making it possible to maintain the serifs’ weight and size. In its narrow versions November Slab is suitable for headlines and short texts that require character and radiate confidence. The normal-width version of November Slab can also be used for longer texts, its substantial serifs leading the reader forward.

The November typeface can be personalised with alternative forms of letters available as Stylistic Sets, controllable via OpenType layout feature settings in your app, or you can build a custom version of the fonts by using these stylistic alternates in a default position.

The November Type system consists of ten font families, each available in nine weights, and countless language versions. It all started with <a href="https://www.typotheque.com/fonts/november">November</a>, a rational, utilitarian typeface inspired by street signs, and it continued with <a href="https://www.typotheque.com/fonts/october">October</a>, a soft and rounded typeface, each available in three logical widths. <a href="https://www.typotheque.com/fonts/november_slab">November Slab</a> is a robust slab serif version that works well in headlines and shorter text, and finally there is <a href="https://www.typotheque.com/fonts/november_stencil/">November Stencil</a>, useful for large text and display, and providing opportunities to work with chromatic typography.

Con il sostantivo mondo si usa designare la totalità della dimensione in cui vivono gli esseri umani, comprendente tutti i suoi abitanti animati e inanimati, inteso anche come il loro luogo primigenio in senso cosmologico e filosofico, distinto dagli altri pianeti ed oggetti materiali o metafisici che costellano l’Universo. Si distingue dal concetto di Terra che ricopre invece il significato di mera entità fisica. In un contesto metafisico, esso può anche fare riferimento a ogni ambito, insieme o sfera globale in sé compiuta, esistente nella realtà o nell’universo. La definizione di mondo nella lingua italiana proviene dall’espressione latina locus mundus nella sua accezione di «luogo pulito, chiaro, visibile» (cioè «mondato»), ovvero quella porzione della Terra, ma anche del cielo, illuminata dalla luce e quindi visibile, identificabile e riconoscibile dall’essere umano. Ma in tale definizione è implicito in aggiunta anche il valore di «ornamento» e di «elegante» inteso come il luogo ordinato dove regna la bellezza, insito anche nel greco kósmos con significato di «ordine, ornamento, bellezza», contrapposto al chàos e che rimanda al pensiero pitagorico ellenistico.

Alternative version of the lower case letter ‘g’, including its accented variants.

Single story ‘g’

When the ‘ľ’ or ‘ď’ (frequent letters in Slovak) are followed by the character with a ascender, the following letter will be replaced by a version without the top serif.

Removing ascender serifs

Most Typotheque fonts implement the Small Caps feature. In Adobe applications you can replace lower case letters with small caps using the keyboard shortcut (⌘ + ⇧ + H), or the OpenType menu.

Small caps

There are two methods of applying small capitals. The first one replaces only lower case letters with small caps. The second method, All Small Caps, also replaces capital letters with small caps. It also replaces regular quotation marks, exclamation points, question marks, slashes and usually also numerals with small caps variants.

All small capitals

When the ‘change to caps’ function is applied from within an application (not when text is typed in caps) appropriate case-sensitive forms are automatically applied. Regular brackets, parenthesis, dashes and hyphens are replaced with their capital forms.

Case-sensitive forms

The discretionary ligature feature creates real arrows when you type the combination -> (right arrow), <- (left arrow), -^ (up arrow) or ^- (down arrow). It also creates enclosed numerals when you type numerals inside parenthesis, and inverse enclosed numerals when you type numerals inside brackets. Discretionary ligatures are off by default in Adobe applications.

Circled numerals and arrows

November Slab Compressed is a slab serif display font, with unexpected asymmetric forms, making it possible to maintain the weight and size of the serifs, even where the proportions are narrow.
