This stylish typeface is based on an old 1930s lettering style popularized by Carl Holmes in his fantastic book on the subject. Rather condensed with an extremely high lowercase, Panorama brings itself perfectly. It is comparable to such classics as Outstanding and Optima with stems flaring somewhat at the ends.
Panorama has a variety of alternate capital, little capital, and lowercase characters consisting of 2 sets of alternate figures.
Panorama, Panorama Alts, and Panorama SC are also available in the OpenType Sexually transmitted disease format. Some new characters have been contributed to these OpenType versions. Advanced features currently work in Adobe Creative Suite InDesign, Creative Suite Illustrator, and Quark XPress 7. Look for OpenType advanced function assistance in other applications as it slowly appears with upgrades.
