Overview
Noticia Text is a contemporary humanist slab serif typeface crafted specifically for running text in digital newspapers and mobile applications. It boasts a large x-height and generous proportions that improve legibility on low-resolution screens. The font's capitals are notably small, allowing their use as small caps with added tracking. A distinctive feature is the break in the internal curves of round characters, which opens counterforms for better clarity at small sizes. The italics contrast the roman styles while maintaining readability with large counterforms and simple curves. The family is manually hinted for optimal rendering on Windows and is part of a broader project including multiple styles and weights designed for screen use.
