Now is a great time to get reacquianted with the best Linotype faces from the last 10 years; reaquaint is certainly the best word, as you’ve already gotten to know these designs in your visual enviroment for some time. Since the late 1990s, Linotype has brought new typefaces onto the market that have changed the way the world communicates. Many of our fonts are found on computers in all parts of the globe, and a few have even become household names – at least among graphic [...]
Agilita™ is a new humanistic sanserif typeface designed by Jürgen Weltin. The mulitilingual OpenType font family has rather classical proportions, to give it more distinct word shapes through clear descenders and ascenders. This new face has a dynamic, yet strong and very functional appearance with a fine but clear emphasis on the horizontals. The classical approach of Agilita makes it a versatile typeface for largescale textsetting but it can also be used in complex information design [...]

Finding function in light and flexible forms Bad Homburg, 26 January, 2007. Linotype launches one of the lightest fonts ever – Agilita™, a new OpenType sans serif, both adaptable and lively. In smaller point sizes, the hairline weight of Agilita is so fragile, it pulsates with the possibility of disappearing and reappearing. The larger the point size of the hairline, however, the more it wants to take charge, its delicacy lifting off the page and grabbing the eye. In heavier weights, Agilita [...]

About Agilita® Thin ...

Linotype usage sample for Agilita® Com Thin
Designer: Jürgen Weltin, 2006
Agilita® Thin belongs to the Agilita® Font Family which is part of the Linotype Originals.
Created by German designer Jürgen Weltin, Linotype's Agilita is a contemporary humanist sans serif family with a wide variety of weights, including both ultra thin hairline options and heavier, dark type. Agilita has rather classical proportions; its clear ascenders and descenders lend more distinct word shapes.

Weltin's design has a dynamic, yet strong and very functional appearance with a fine but clear emphasis on the horizontals. This traditional approach makes it a versatile typeface for large-scale text setting, but it can also be used in complex information design projects, and orientation systems, for example. Hence it was developed carefully into a wide range type family system consisting of thirty-two styles. This even covers the requirements for display and headline setting. Corresponding condensed weights are suitable where horizontal space is rare, as in narrow columns and tables, for example. The Agilta Hairline and Agilta Ultra Thin styles were especially made for display use. These fonts should be set at a minimum size of 20 pt for printed project, and about 40 pt on output to laser printers, depending on the paper used.

Agilita's character sets include special symbols and signs that may be used in dictionaries; like arrows for lemmata and signs for cross references, idioms or colloquial language. There are two sets of arrows available in each weight for use in orientation systems. Each font in the Agilta family is built according to Linotype's Extended European character set guidelines. These offer support for more than 48 Latin-based languages used in Western, Central, and Eastern Europe, including Baltics and Turkey.
