What You Can Type With Gestalt

Gestalt has the full alphabet in upper and lowercase. Only 2 of the ten numbers are included, so double-check dates and prices before you print anything. Punctuation is limited, so look at the character map if you need a specific symbol. There are no accented letters like é or ñ, so it's best kept to English text.

Where Gestalt Works Best

Think of Gestalt for book covers, magazine headlines and classic branding. Its lowercase letters are small compared to the capitals, so set it a size or two bigger than usual. Serif fonts shine in headlines and printed text. For long paragraphs on phones, check that it still reads well at small sizes.
