Dehjuti was designed by T. Christopher White and published by I & O Media. Dehjuti contains 12 styles and family package options.  

Dehjuti /de.’hju:.ti:/, predominantly based off Dwiggin’s Electra, with shades of Palatino, is a modern and stately slab serif. Like its inspirer, it has broad counters and spacing, which temper it and give it warmth, making it comfortable and well-suited for longer texts. It is balanced in all aspects, from its punctuation to its reference marks and symbols. Its design takes into consideration all extra characters for languages that few fonts support, such as African and First Nation. These extra characters, such as Edh, Esh, Gamma, Ezh, Yogh, the pharyngeal fricatives, the click consonants, which have added capital versions, the glottal stops, et cetera, actually look like they belong, as opposed to being afterthoughts. The italic incorporates a touch of Arrighi. It includes all transcription systems relevant to the Latin, Cyrillic, and Greek alphabets, as well as standard Coptic, plus extra characters for Teuthonista and First Nation. It also includes, to list a few, Egyptian-styled pictographs (where applicable), APL, virtually all mathematical symbols and arrows, and a ton of extra characters in the Private Use Area for African, First Nation, and lesser known languages, to be used with programs lacking open type technology. Note: Dehjuti has three variants: Regular Cyrillic, Bulgarian (B) Cyrillic, and Macedonian/Serbian (MS) Cyrillic.
