The weights in Langton are called - unconventionally but helpfully we believe - in rising order from 0 Light, 1 SemiLight, 2 Routine approximately 9 Fat - which our company believe makes it much easier when going through the menu. However the weight identifying is relative to each other rather than outright - they're mostly a fair bit lighter or thinner than the name might recommend (for circumstances Vibrant isn't all that vibrant, nor is Heavy especially heavy) however this is deliberate - to provide additional weights and higher subtlety of choice at the lighter end of the typeface when creating large bodies of text, or for brief headlines in adverts and features. (The difference between the thinner weights is actually half the difference between the heavier weights.)
All the font styles have plenty of Open Type features and a couple of extras, including naturally Class Kerning and Ligatures, a few beneficial pictorial/dingbat characters, bullet numbers as ligature replacements, alternative fractions, stylistic alternatives and so on. A more complete list remains in the text file in the zips.
In complete the weights are 0 Light, 1 SemiLight, 2 Routine, 3 Demibold, 4 Bold, 5 Extrabold, 6 Heavy, 7 Black, 8 Ultra, 9 Fat.
There are 2 combined packs available: the 5 lighter font styles together, and the entire family.
The zip files include both the OTF and TTF versions of the typeface. Set up only one variation, either the OTF or TTF, but not both - otherwise you will get all sorts of incompatibility issues and issues.
