Compatil®

The ease of reading is achieved through pronounced changes in stroke thickness between the inner contour and outline over the course of the line. Also it is achieved by emphasizing the slanted axis for all rounded characters, the pronounced serif for ascenders facilitates fixation, and therefore legibility. As with all type, Compatil has an ambiance over and above its primary function. While readers are unaware of this, it contributes considerabily to making reading a more pleasurable and less tiring experience.
