TypeMates, Jakob Runge, improvement of Cyrillics Ilya Ruderman and Yury Ostromentsky
The starting point for the collection, Cera Pro is distilled from elementary shapes and brings simplicity, elegance and a certain warmth wherever a contemporary geometric typeface is needed.
Cera Pro’s six weights, thin to black, give it a full range of expression for interfaces and corporate design; in print, on screen and in multiple languages. Matching italics, carefully sloped a lively 10º, are invigorated with a dash of rotalic flavour: keeping the o a perfect circle and giving Cera Pro’s italics striking effect when used for display typography.
A steadfast companion for text, Cera Pro has a large x-height and compact capitals. For best on-screen performance the TrueType files for the web and desktop fonts have been improved with manual hinting. Naturally, it also has all the useful dingbats and arrows you might need.
The extended Cera Pro supports around 150 languages in the Latin and Cyrillic scripts. With over 980 glyphs per style, Cera cares about localised letterforms and has the OpenType features to match.
