KoHo is a sans serif family for Thai and Latin, drawn to stand between geometric and humanist sans serifs so that it looks neither mechanical nor calligraphic. In the Latin specimen the round letters are squared at the shoulders, giving o, c and e the outline of a rounded rectangle; the K joins its arm and leg in one bent stroke, and y ends in a short flat hook. Strokes are even and the capitals are wide. The family has six weights, ExtraLight 200, Light, Regular, Medium, SemiBold and Bold 700, each with an italic: 12 static files in total, not a variable font. Its 774 glyphs cover Thai, Latin, Latin Extended and Vietnamese. The catalogue credits Cadson Demak, the name table reads Cadson Demak & Katatrad Team, and the license is the SIL Open Font License 1.1.
