CA Saygon Text is based upon the CA Saygon, however is created for quantity setting and traditional editorial tasks. The basic percentages and the form language are still reminiscent of CA Saygon, but have been more developed independently. The outcome was a typeface with a strong character and a no-nonsense extension with 7 weights from Thin to Extrabold.
Early grotesque typefaces were a source of inspiration, however a historical impression was clearly avoided. This is due to the reasonably low caps height and ascenders, which makes the typeface very space-efficient. In addition, there are some letters that go out at right angles instead of roundings. However the unique emphasize of the font are the 5 styles in which it can be used. The Helvetica design is set as default, with two-story a and two-story g. But there are more styles, like the Franklin style with two-storey a and three-storey g. The Futura style has a single-storey a and a two-storey g accordingly. But the very best thing is the Cape Style, with single-storey a and three-storey g. A great extravagance with a remarkably pleasant appearance. If you like it a bit more experimental, then the Flat design is advised, which continues the rectangularity in a, g, and y, too.
Besides some Opentype features, like superiors and inferiors, fractions and tabular and proportional numbers, there is an abundant language support. In addition to Latin Extended, there is also a Cyrillic alphabet, as well as Vietnamese letters, which recommends the font style for international communication.
