Display Fonts

Display Font is a typeface that is intended for use at large sizes for headings, rather than for extended passages of body text. A display font is a broad category of fonts that are designed for short-form and often large-format applications, such as billboards or posters; logotypes; headlines or headings in magazines or websites; and book covers. Some typefaces, such as Helvetica Now, will include a display version in which the original design is embellished or exaggerated for use at larger sizes.
