About

Zed Text sits within a remarkably large type system that spans Display, Round and Text optical variants, each offered in up to nine widths from Extra-Compressed to Extra-Wide. The Text subfamily covers four widths — standard through Extra-Wide — and runs from Hairline to Black with slanted companions throughout. A variable font is also available, making Zed Text a serious option for complex editorial and UI environments that demand tightly controlled typographic hierarchies.

Classification

Zed Text is a sans-serif with geometric construction, forming part of a large multi-width system; the Text subfamily is optimised for running text at smaller sizes, distinct from the Display and Round variants.
