A variable grotesque with optical size and width axes, offering Fine, Normal and Inktrap subfamilies across an unusually broad range of widths from Ultimate Compressed to Ultimate Expanded.
About
Dx Kord is a variable grotesque from Dirty Line Studio that spans eighteen named style instances across three optical categories: Fine, Normal and Inktrap. The width axis runs from Ultimate Compressed through to Ultimate Expanded, giving designers substantial flexibility for both tight setting and broad display work. The Inktrap subfamily adds ink-trap details suited to small sizes or as a stylistic feature at larger scales.
Classification
The family's optical size axis spanning Fine, Normal and Inktrap subfamilies, combined with its wide width range, points to a contemporary grotesque designed for demanding print and display conditions.
