Author's note

PT Sans by A. Korolkova, O. Umpeleva, and V. Yefimov of ParaType is a free humanist sans serif with an open, practical manner. Its strokes show gentle modulation, and the curved letters have relaxed, slightly calligraphic shapes. The proportions feel compact and orderly.

It can give magazine features and public-information graphics a calm, approachable voice. Its clear forms also suit wayfinding, institutional branding, and digital interfaces, where text must feel friendly but disciplined. These uses are linked by lettering that stays personable in functional settings.

Description

PT Sans is a type family of universal use. It consists of 8 styles: regular and bold weights with corresponding italics form a standard computer font family; two narrow styles (regular and bold) are intended for documents that require tight set; two caption styles (regular and bold) are for texts of small point sizes. The design combines traditional conservative appearance with modern trends of humanistic sans serif and characterized by enhanced legibility. These features beside conventional use in business applications and printed stuff made the fonts quite useable for direction and guide signs, schemes, screens of information kiosks and other objects of urban visual communications.

The fonts next to standard Latin and Cyrillic character sets contain signs of title languages of the national republics of Russian Federation and support the most of the languages of neighboring countries. The fonts were developed and released by ParaType in 2009 with financial support from Federal Agency of Print and Mass Communications of Russian Federation. Design - Alexandra Korolkova with assistance of Olga Umpeleva and supervision of Vladimir Yefimov.
