Karmina :::: Karmina is a text typeface developed mainly for pocket books and budget editions.
It was built to withstand the worst printing conditions: low quality papers, high printing speed with web
presses and variations in the ink level of the printing press.
Some of Karmina's most representative
features are the rather large serifs, intended to work perfectly in small reproduction sizes, the sharpness
of the shapes, including some calligraphic reminiscences, and the large and yet graceful ink traps in the
acute connections. Structurally, Karmina combines a significantly large x-height with relatively compressed
letterforms. The result of these features grants Karmina outstanding legibility and economy.
Karmina features four weights and 800 characters per weight, including small caps, discretionary ligatures,
fractions and a complete range of numerals for every use. It also supports over 40 languages that use the latin
extended alphabet.
Karmina was selected in the text typography category at the Letras Latinas exhibition 2006. |
