Typo-Galerie – Aptifer
Mårten Thavenius designed Aptifer® in 2006. The typeface family consists of two subfamilies: Aptifer Sans and Aptifer Slab. Each of them has seven weights – thin, light, regular, medium, semibold, bold, and black – in roman and italic respectively, making 28 font styles in total.
A heritage from two design traditions can be seen in Aptifer. One is the robust American gothic typefaces, like M. F. Benton’s, from around 1900. This is combined with the openness and legibility that comes from the humanist tradition.
Both Aptifer Sans and Aptifer Slab are highly legible typefaces and can be used both in print and on screen.
Aptifer is an OpenType Pro family and each font style has support for Western European, Central European, Turkish, and Baltic languages. A wide range of glyph variants are accessible through OpenType features including small caps, ligatures, lower- and uppercase ordinals, and eight sets of figures. You will also find two sets of arrows and other usable symbols in the fonts.
