The Magnate Family began as a digitization of a film typeface from LetterGraphics known as “Wilshire”.
What began as a basic glyphset was fleshed out with a full character set with a smallcaps feature. We also decided to add a slightly more delicate side to Magnate, softening up the sharp flair serifs just a little.
See the 5th graphic for a comprehensive character map preview.
Opentype features include:
- Full set of Inferiors and Superiors for limitless fractions.
- SmallCaps feature.
- Tabular and Proportional figure sets.
- A small collection of Standard Ligatures.
- A Stylistic Alternates feature for an alternate lowercase t style.
Approx. 687 Character Glyph Set: Each style of Magnate comes with a glyphset that includes standard & punctuation, international language support, and additional features.
