About Gabarito

Gabarito is a geometric sans serif first drawn for an online learning platform in Brazil; its name is the Brazilian Portuguese term for an answer sheet. The letters in the specimen sit on round bowls, with a double-storey a, a single-storey g, round dots and a straight-tailed Q, and the weights climb from Regular to a dense Black. Because the typeface was made for students preparing for university entrance exams, its 519 glyphs go beyond the alphabet to set-theory and logic symbols, maths operators, scientific superiors and inferiors, and roman numerals. Gabarito is a variable font with a weight axis from 400 to 900 and six named weights; it has no italics and nothing lighter than Regular. Leandro Assis and Álvaro Franca began the design, Felipe Casaprima joined its later development, and Naipe Foundry released it under the SIL Open Font License 1.1.

Where Gabarito works

Worksheets and course material

Maths operators, set-theory and logic symbols and scientific superiors and inferiors are in the font, so formulas match the surrounding text.

Headings in learning apps

The typeface was commissioned for an online study platform, and its six weights separate titles, section heads and labels.

Chemistry and physics notation

Scientific inferiors and superiors set formulas and exponents without scaling ordinary digits.

Posters and social graphics

ExtraBold 800 and Black 900 make round, compact headlines for a few words at large size.

Friendly brand names

Round bowls and round dots give a product name a soft, approachable outline.
