A type created in a grid, like on screen panels

In a streetcar, I met a contemporary variation of this display screen which exposes the name of each cable car stop as it is approached. This system was based upon a popular coarse square grid, however the private squares were also divided once again diagonally in 4 triangles.

In by doing this it is possible to show slants and to replicate round forms more properly as with only squares. The displayed characters still aren't equivalent to a good typeface-- on the contrary, the lower case letters are remarkably ugly-- but they form a much more readable type than that of common [quadrate] grid types.

DeDisplay is this kind of type, built from tiny triangles which remain in turn grouped in small squares. The stem widths are formed by two squares; the height of upper case characters is 10, the x-height 7 squares.
DeDisplay is offered in 3 versions: DeDisplay 1 is the complex original with areas in between the triangles, DeDisplay 2 gives up dividing the triangles and thus appears rather darker or "strong," and DeDisplay 3 is to some degree the "black" and does not even consist of spaces between the individual squares.
