Sinter specimen from Signal

A squarish geometric sans with OCR-A-influenced branch angles and a rounded-rectangle skeleton, spanning nine weights for on-screen display use.

About

Signal cite Georg Trump's City, Hermann Zapf's Melior and Alessandro Butti's Microgramma as the lineage that Sinter continues, taking a rounded-rectangle geometry and refining it for readability on screen. Open counters, unambiguous curves and straight vertical and horizontal strokes make it well suited to display setting, while angled branches reference OCR-A's mechanical character. Eighteen styles cover Thin to Ultra, each with a matching italic, and tabular figures are duplexed across all weights with case-sensitive punctuation and support for over 130 languages.

Classification

Built on a rounded rectangle base with ruler-straight vertical and horizontal strokes, open counters, and angled branches referencing OCR-A; firmly geometric with a squarish, technological character akin to City, Melior and Microgramma.
