THIS PACKAGE CONTAINS ONLY THE NORMAL VERSION

Desphalia belongs to the kind of sans serif fonts that were created in the 19th century. You could also name it “American Gothic”, a sans serif in the style of fonts like Franklin Gothic, News Gothic and similar.
Above all, the high x-height characterizes this typeface style, as do the identical heights of uppercase and ascenders.

Style Set 01
Another American peculiarity is the capital I with dashes above and below. It is included in the Desphalia as an alternate character form. An alternative small l with the “kink” in the ascender is also included — as is a y with the “kink” in the descender.

Style Set 02
The corresponding “straight” forms a d l m n p u without the break are included as alternatives in a separate style set.

Small caps
Small caps are uppercase letters that are optically the same size as lowercase letters. They offer a very classy way of emphasis.

The figures are optionally available as tabular figures, proportional lining figures or old style figures.
