What You Can Type With Dirgantara

Dirgantara covers the full alphabet in upper and lowercase, plus all ten numbers, so you can set names, dates and prices without switching fonts. Common punctuation such as &, ? and @ is included as well. It doesn't include accented letters such as é or ñ, which makes it an English-only font.

How to Use the Alternate Letters in Dirgantara

Dirgantara has a stylistic set built in as OpenType features. In Illustrator and InDesign, open the Glyphs panel (Window > Type) and select a letter to see its alternates. In Photoshop, use Window > Glyphs. Figma shows them under the text settings as OpenType features. Microsoft Word can switch on stylistic sets in the Font dialog under Advanced. Canva and Cricut Design Space can't reach OpenType alternates, so for those, set the word in a desktop app first and import it as an SVG.

Where Dirgantara Works Best

Think of Dirgantara for wedding invitations, logos and signature-style headings. 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.

Does Dirgantara support accented letters?

No. Dirgantara has no accented letters such as é, ñ or ü, so it's best for English text.

What fonts pair well with Dirgantara?

For the small print, like dates, addresses or menu items, pair it with a clean sans serif such as Montserrat or Lato.
