Inspired by Helserif (Phil Martin, 1978) which was formed in the same way by addition of square serifs to Helvetica (Eduard Hoffman and Max Miedinger, 1957). First sketches of Pragmatica Slabserif were created by Vladimir Yefimov in 1988 throughout development of Pragmatica. Olga Umpeleva developed the entire slabserif type family of 6 weights basing on those sketches. All styles of Pragmatica Slabserif collaborate with matching Pragmatica designs on metrics, percentages, weights and design. The new family can be utilized together with Pragmatica and separately.
It's convenient for technical texts, for publications of basic nature, for organization applications as well as for marketing and display matter.
Pragmatica Slabserif was released by ParaType in 2011.
