Download Gimbal Egyptian Fonts by AVP
Gimbal Egyptian is a richly-featured font family providing many style options across a broad range of languages.
It is twinned with Gimbal Grotesque, a sans-serif family with an identical range of weights and features.
Originally conceived as a small webfont family, the letterforms have been revitalised to put a spring in their step and the family has been extended to create a versatile multi-script text face equally at home on the printed page.
Carefully crafted at all weights, Gimbal also lends itself to headlines and display applications such as posters, exhibitions and signage while resolving well on-screen for general document creation and web-based applications.
The letters are spaced for best readability on-screen and in the usual printed body text ranges but are tolerant of tracking adjustment to suit other uses.
The styles are divided by width into four families (Compressed, Condensed, Normal, Extended), each family possessing six weights plus corresponding italics.
Within each family, the regular and bold weights are style-linked, and all upright forms have an italic counterpart.
The full opentype character set includes latin, greek and cyrillic scripts with appropriate local variants (also as stylistic sets) for Turkish, Polish and Romanian (latin) and Russian, Bulgarian and Serbian (cyrillic).
All fonts contain small capitals for all scripts, superscript for latin and commonly used greek together with the usual numeral style, size and positioning options.
The default numerals are proportional lining. Other opentype features include case-sensitive marks, fractions, and some discretionary ligatures.
A set of circled numerals and circled latin capitals is included, along with an unusual feature that composes 2-character country codes.
