About Poster Sans Font Family


Loosely based on Ludlow 6-EC, the POSTER SANS family is perfect for headlines, titles, signs and posters, and has the enduring functionality of vintage condensed grotesques, timeless and trustworthy. The version 6 fonts feature completely redrawn charater sets with improved outlines, spacing and kerning, each containing a full complement of Latin Extended-A European accented characters.

The Basic Family includes the Regular, Italic (oblique), Bold and Bold Italic.

Two new weights are also available, Light and Thin, each accompanied by a complimentary Italic (oblique).

Poster Sans Extreme may hold the record for the slimmest, usable font available.
