Ich teste i.d.R. wie folgt:
* 1 (die Zahl eins)
* l (kleines Ell; idealerweise mit Rundung, fonts, bei denen diese Rundung fehlt, mag ich nicht)
* I (großes Ieh)
* i (kleines Ieh; ausreichend Abstand zwischen dem Buchstaben und dem Punkt)
* | (das Pipe-Zeichen)

* 8 (die Zahl Acht)
* B (großes Beh)
* ß (scharfes s; Esszett)

* o (das kleine Oh)
* O (das große Oh)
* 0 (die Zahl Null; idealerweise schmäler als das große Oh (und auch höher als das kleine Oh!) und/oder mit Schrägstrich (nicht mit Punkt!) innen)

* 3 (die Zahl Drei)
* 6 (die Zahl Sechs)
* 9 (die Zahl Neun)

Bei diesen drei Zahlen sollten die Öffnungen/Bögen "nicht zu weit zu gehen".

Nur wenn hier eine wirklich gute Unterscheidbarkeit zwischen den genannten Zahlen/Buchstaben gegeben ist, bin ich zufrieden.

Außerdem achte ich noch auf Folgendes:
* Beim e (kleines Eh) sollte der untere Bogen nicht "zu weit zu gehen" (idealerweise nur bis knapp über die Mitte)
* Die "Schenkel" des M (großes Em) sollten nach links/rechts ausgestellt (also nicht nur senkrecht runter) sein

Few applications are outside FF Nort’s broad range. Its large x-height, open counters and wide apertures make it equally suited to print and interactive design projects. It excels in text sizes for captions, subheads and long-form copy. As stroke weight increases, FF Nort becomes a powerful display type tool. From simple text copy to complicated brand design, and everything in... Read More

Satero was designed by Prof. Werner Schneider in 2007. Never before have we had so much written material to consume; this is the age of mass-communication. Unfortunately, the decision of which typeface to use is too often made lightly. The typeface is one of the most elementary means of language, and it can play a major role in a text's legibility and the amount of time the reader needs for it.... Read More
