Author's note

HARDCOPY by Ana Starhan is a free techno display font with broad, forceful lettering and a distinctly industrial profile. Hard right angles meet clipped corners and create shapes that recall machinery labels and early arcade hardware. The forms are dense and emphatic.

Its retro-futurist character makes it a convincing fit for game graphics, electronic music artwork, and science-fiction posters. In motorsport branding and event merchandise, the recurring notches and octagonal turns echo badges, control panels, machine housings, and fabricated metal parts.
