- Its stroke contrast is minimal and it preserves an even color, especially in smaller point sizes, which contributes to its great legibility.
- Its Roman and italic glyphs are animated by serifs and terminals that are cut on an angle to the baseline, and are concavely indented on the terminals, reminiscent of the Belwe and Palatino typefaces.
Why it is Common
