Two font styles in one: a classic-modern sans serif appearing in two forms-- "basic" and a "stylistic alternate" with uncial script-orientated characters which offer the font an entirely different "appearance."
.A uniqueness of Faber Sans is that it is in fact made up of two font styles. The "standard typeface" is a sans serif in the classic-modern design of type productions of the early 20th century.
The Roman Capitalis offered the design for the classically proportioned capital letters and the harmonic shapes of the humanistic minuscule for the lower case characters.
It is reader-friendly under adverse typographic conditions on the monitor.
.A "second" typeface with its own individual character resulted as stylistic alternates were designed for the letters a e f g l t u in accordance with the uncial scripts of the late antiquity or rather the early Middle Ages. And the r is given a playful point in the stylistic alternates. The stylistic alternate can be accessed through the OpenType-Functions "Discretionary Ligatures" or likewise "Stylistic Alternates" (and obviously the glyph panel).
.Unlike timeless sans serifs, Faber Sans includes a "true" italic. The italic characters are not merely just inclined variations of the upright, however the characters came from out of handwriting designs; they are rounder and the stroke circulation is more fluent than on the upright letters.
