Magnate was designed by Jim Lyles, Brian Bonislawsky and published by Stiggy & Sands. Magnate contains 2 styles and family package options.
The Magnate Family began as a digitization of a film typeface from LetterGraphics known as ‘Wilshire’.
What began as a basic glyphset was fleshed out with a full character set with a smallcaps feature. We also decided to add a slightly more delicate side to Magnate, softening up the sharp flair serifs just a little.
See the 5th graphic for a comprehensive character map preview.
Opentype features include:
– Full set of Inferiors and Superiors for limitless fractions.
– SmallCaps feature.
– Tabular and Proportional figure sets.
– A small collection of Standard Ligatures.
– A Stylistic Alternates feature for an alternate lowercase t style.
Approx. 687 Character Glyph Set: Each style of Magnate comes with a glyphset that includes standard & punctuation, international language support, and additional features.
