Gentium is a typeface family designed to enable the diverse ethnic groups
|
||
around the world who use the Latin script to produce readable, high-quality
|
||
publications. It supports a wide range of Latin-based alphabets and includes
|
||
glyphs that correspond to all the Latin ranges of Unicode.
|
||
|
||
The design is intended to be highly readable, reasonably compact, and visually
|
||
attractive. The additional ‘extended’ Latin letters are designed to naturally
|
||
harmonize with the traditional 26 ones. Diacritics are treated with careful
|
||
thought and attention to their use. Gentium also supports both polytonic and
|
||
monotonic Greek, including a number of alternate forms. These fonts were
|
||
originally the product of two years of research and study by the designer at
|
||
the University of Reading, England, as part of an MA program in Typeface
|
||
Design.
