Design concept

A display version of Plan Grotesque with space saving proportions. The typeface is appealing in large signage as well as traditional print use. The stencil cuts emphasise the stroke terminals and give the typeface a crisp, playful character. Just like the regular version, Plan Grotesque Stencil comes with true italics. Plan Grotesque is part of the comprehensive range of weights, widths and display styles available.

Numerals

All weights of Plan Grotesque Stencil Condensed include seven different kinds of numerals. Default numerals are proportional lining numerals. The typeface includes: ranging, or OsF (Old-style proportional Figures) for use in running text. Lining figures for use with capitals letters, because their proportions match the height of caps. Tabular (both Lining and OsF), Superior and Inferior figures, and special numerator figures for using in fractions.
