The small caps companion to Bona Nova, extending its multilingual humanist serif quality to formal typographic applications requiring true small capitals.

About

Bona Nova SC provides natively drawn small caps across its Latin, Cyrillic, and Greek ranges, making it a serious tool for book designers and academic publishers. Proper small capitals preserve optical weight and proportion in a way that scaled full caps cannot, and their availability across multiple scripts is relatively rare. Paired with Bona Nova, it enables complete and sophisticated typographic systems for multilingual documents.

Classification

Bona Nova SC is the small caps companion to Bona Nova, maintaining the same humanist serif character with natively designed small capitals across its multilingual range. This variant is particularly valuable for formal academic and book typography requiring proper small cap treatment.
