What You Can Type With Joscelyn

You get every letter from A to Z in both cases and all the numbers from 0 to 9, which means Joscelyn can handle full sentences, dates and prices. Everyday marks like &, !, ? and @ are there too. Thanks to its accented letters, it also works for Spanish, French, German, Portuguese and Italian, not just English.

Ligatures and Smart Letters in Joscelyn

Ligatures and contextual alternates switch on by themselves: some letter pairs join into one shape and letters change to fit their neighbours, so repeated letters don't look copy-pasted. This works automatically in most design apps and modern browsers.

Where Joscelyn Works Best

Joscelyn is a natural fit for posters, logos and eye-catching headlines. Its lowercase letters are small compared to the capitals, so set it a size or two bigger than usual. Use it for one standout word or headline and let simpler fonts handle the rest.
