Where Hansen Works Best
Hansen is a natural fit for book covers, magazine headlines and classic branding. 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. Serif fonts shine in headlines and printed text. For long paragraphs on phones, check that it still reads well at small sizes.
