Basic Font Information
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Average is a typeface that emerged from a long process of
|
||
|
|
research into text typeface families from various different
|
||
|
|
historical periods, both classical and contemprary. The idea
|
||
|
|
was to design an average font for use in text, through a
|
||
|
|
lengthy process of shape measurement and data gathering in
|
||
|
|
spreadsheets. This resulted in a series of parameters which
|
||
|
|
could be used by a designer to determine the proportions,
|
||
|
|
color, spacing and other attributes of a typeface. Once the
|
||
|
|
parameters were defined and best values were selected, the
|
||
|
|
forms for the Average Regular typeface were drawn.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A sans sister family, Average Sans, is also available.
