Visual Identity Typography
Drawn specifically for increased legibility in charts and tables are a set of tabular glyphs, consisting of figures, currencies and math symbols.

These are drawn with monospace settings so the numbers align neatly in rows and columns – making them easier to skim-read, particularly in screen application.
To activate Tabular lining The tablular glyphs are available in the Character menu > OpenType > Lining Tabular Figures
Tabiular ligning is available with our full font set: • F1 Regular • F1 Bold • F1 Black • F1 Wide
ALIGNMENT EXAMPLE
+0.430 +1.692 +2.568 +3.857 +4.645
TABULAR LINING: ON
As shown above, when tabular lining is applied, our numbers align neatly, making it easier to read quickly. TABULAR LINING: OFF
As shown above, when tablular lining is not applied the numbers align optically – creating a dis-jointed appearance, which is harder to read quickly.
Do not use non-tabular ligning numbers in lists, charts or tables.
