SIL Open Font License, 1.1The Quattrocento Roman typeface is a Classic, Elegant, Sober and Strong typeface.
Their wide and open letterforms, and the great x-height, make it very legible for body text at small sizes. And their tiny details that only shows up at bigger sizes make it also great for display use.
Some of their distinctive characteristics are:
- Low Contrast. The thins are just a tad thiner than the thicks, almost monotone.
- Cupped, tapered stems that flows naturally into the serifs.
- Distinctive K, R and & tail.
- Cupped B, D, E, F, P, Q, R and T.
- The Q is a humble expression of admiration and gratitude for Doyald Young.
- Alternate M, Two W alternates .
- Narrow L, T for better fit.
- Almost flat top serif on the lowercases.
- Shoulders of the m and n rise above the serif.
- Serif-less bottom j and y.
One morning, when Gregor Samsa woke from troubled dreams, he found himself transformed in his bed into a horrible vermin. He lay on his armour-like back, and if he lifted his head a little he could see his brown belly, slightly domed and divided by arches into stiff sections. The bedding was hardly able to cover it and seemed ready to slide off any moment. His many legs, pitifully thin compared with the size of the rest of him, waved about helplessly as he looked.
