What You Can Type With Check

Ligatures and Smart Letters in Check

Its ligatures switch on by themselves in most design apps: certain letter pairs join into one specially drawn shape.

Where Check Works Best

Designers usually reach for fonts like Check when they're making wedding invitations, certificates and elegant quotes. Its lowercase letters are small compared to the capitals, so set it a size or two bigger than usual. The file has no kerning data, so in logos and big titles check pairs like AV, To and Wa and tighten the spacing by hand. Script fonts read best in short bursts, so keep it to names, titles and one-line quotes. Skip all caps: script capitals are drawn to start a word, not to fill one.
