## About Antonio

Antonio is a condensed sans serif family built on the Anton design. Where Anton exists only as one very heavy cut, Antonio spreads the same tall, straight-sided letters over seven weights, Thin, ExtraLight, Light, Regular, Medium, SemiBold and Bold, on a variable weight axis from 100 to 700. The official description says the refinements were made so that the face also works in smaller headings, menus and buttons. In the specimen the letters are narrow with flat-sided curves, the lowercase is tall, and even the Bold is lighter and more open than Anton. There are no italics, and the heaviest weight stops at 700. The font contains 440 glyphs in the Latin and Latin Extended subsets, with letters for Turkish, Polish, Czech and other European languages; Vietnamese is not covered. Vernon Adams is the designer, and the license is the SIL Open Font License 1.1.

## Where it works

- **Navigation menus and buttons**: Narrow letters fit long labels into small controls, one of the uses the refinements over Anton were made for.
- **Subheads under a heavy title**: Light to Medium weights give a condensed second level that keeps the same letter shapes as the headline.
- **Tables and tight columns**: Condensed figures and letters save horizontal space in schedules, fixtures and price lists.
- **Wayfinding and labels**: Tall lowercase and straight-sided curves stay distinct when words must be narrow and upright.
- **Thin display numerals**: Thin 100 and ExtraLight 200 turn large numbers into fine vertical lines for dashboards and posters.

## Things to know

- **Stops at Bold**: The weight axis runs from 100 to 700. For something heavier, the related Anton font is a single much darker cut.
- **No italics**: Antonio has seven upright styles in one variable file.
- **Latin only**: The 440 glyphs cover Latin and Latin Extended; Vietnamese, Cyrillic and Greek are absent.
