The idea to develop a new typeface tailored to the special requirements of annual reports was born out of the "First Heidelberg Forum for Annual Reports 1988". The challenge was to provide a type system that delivered readability and multiple tonality while maintaining harmony throughout the wide range of different characters required in an annual report. Linotype worked closely together with Professor Olaf Leu and his Analyse Team at the University of Applied Sciences, Mainz, who have [...]

In designing Linotype Compatil, particular attention was paid to ensuring optimum on-screen displays. The problem in displaying individual forms lies in the low resolution of the screen. This results in the font being displayed in a lower quality. It is particularly important that the individual forms are displayed clearly in on-screen applications and can be distinguished easily. This is particularly true for financial accounts that are presented on the Internet. The key features include [...]

About Compatil® Exquisit Regular ...

Designer: Linotype Design Studio / Olaf Leu, 2001
Compatil® Exquisit Regular belongs to the Compatil® Exquisit Font Family which is part of the Platinum Collection.
Compatil is the first comprehensive type system which enables all typographical elements to be used to full effect in order to reproduce the message conveyed by text information. Four different type styles with a total of 16 weights including italics have been merged into a unique typographical network. There are now no limits to the font user's creativity. The system is a product of technical innovation and constitutes a new design approach which meets the highest aesthetic standards. For almost two years, a team of experts from Linotype has been working with initiator Professor Olaf Leu under the direction of Silja Bilz, Erik Faulhaber and Reinhard Haus to create the Compatil type system. Despite the Internet and TV, it is essential today to be able to absorb information quickly by being able to read it with ease. A fact that is becoming increasingly important both on-screen and on paper. It is the role of the font to increase legibility and to ensure typographically perfect results for text design work. The new Compatil type system meets all these needs. The Compatil is a part of the Platinum Collection.
The following four different styles are available:
Compatil Exquisit,
Compatil Fact,
Compatil Letter and
Compatil Text.
Compatil is available in various font formats:
16 separate OT Pro fonts including the small caps and Adobe Central European character set for OpenType-supporting applications like Adobe InDesign, or as
32 separate OpenType Com fonts for office communication, with the following special features:
1. Optimized display capabilities for computer screens eXcellent Screen Fonts (XSF-quality).
2. An extended, international character set, which supports 48 different languages for Microsoft Office applications like MS Word or as
64 PostScript fonts, which can be used in non-OpenType-supporting applications like Quark XPress.
