Ocean Sans was designed by Ong Chong Wah and published by Adobe. Ocean Sans contains 24 styles and family package options.
Designed in 1993 by Chong Wah of Monotype, Ocean Sans is a typeface that ranges from normal to extended in width, and light to extra bold in weight. It has a large x-height with resulting short ascenders and descenders. It’s unusual for a sans serif because of its relatively high contrast between thick and thin strokes, which makes it useful for display purposes.
It performs well in innumerable type-setting situations. Since the normal width of Ocean Sans is quite narrow, it’s ideal for magazines and other text settings rife with copyfitting issues.
