Named after the steadfast medical professional from Albert Camus' The Plague, Rieux is an even-tempered slab-serif that is confident without being cocky and friendly without being casual. The visual of Rieux is inspired by the commercial age. While the style is not straight obtained from typefaces of that era, the shapes of letter-forms are notified by images of over-sized steel makers and the monolithic brick buildings that housed them. Rieux is readily available in 5 weights and is ideal for uncatalogued, magazines, brief publications and company security. In addition to supporting Western, Central and Eastern European languages, Rieux includes an array of OpenType functions to supply a range of typographic alternatives. For applications where the typographic requirements are not extensive, a reduced character set version of Rieux is offered. Called Rieux Minus, this version does not include any of the OpenType includes with the exception of ligatures. The language support, however remains unchanged.
