FF Amman Sans Arabic Thin Italic

Designed by Yanone in 2010

Published by FontFont

Formats
OpenType
OpenType — a flexible and full–featured font format — is compatible with print, web and use on PC & Mac computers.

FF Amman is one of the largest bilingual families ever made, one of the few designed bilingually from scratch and the first containing true Arabic italics.

The project began as Yanone’s graduation project at Bauhaus University in Weimar, Germany. In late 2008, Yanone set out to Amman, the capital of Jordan, to re-brand the municipality in preparation of its centennial celebrations. The typeface with several typographic novelties has been used widely for all kinds of municipal services in Amman. The family consists of seven sans and four serif weights, each with their true italics and both Latin and Arabic character sets.

    OpenType Features Hover over a feature to learn more. Click a feature to filter Character Set view.
    1. Show All Glyphs
    2. Access All Alternates
      This feature makes all variations of a selected character accessible. This serves several purposes: An application may not support the feature by which the desired glyph would normally be accessed; the user may need a glyph outside the context supported by the normal substitution, or the user may not know what feature produces the desired glyph. Since many-to-one substitutions are not covered, ligatures would not appear in this table unless they were variant forms of another ligature.
    3. Contextual Alternates
      When available, replaces default glyphs with alternate forms which provide better joining behavior.
    4. Case-sensitive Forms
      Shifts various punctuation marks up to a position that works better with all-capital sequences or sets of lining figures; also changes oldstyle figures to lining figures.
    5. Discretionary Ligatures
      Replaces a sequence of glyphs with a single glyph. This feature covers those ligatures which may be used for special effect, at the user's preference.
    6. Denominators
      Replaces selected figures which follow a slash with denominator figures.
    7. Terminal Forms
      Replaces glyphs at the ends of words with alternate forms designed for this use. This is common in Latin connecting scripts, and required in various non-Latins like Arabic.
    8. Fractions
      Replaces figures separated by a slash with 'common' (diagonal) fractions.
    9. Historical Forms
      This feature replaces the default (current) forms with the historical alternates, e.g. the long form of s or the old Fraktur k.
    10. Initial Forms
      Replaces glyphs at the beginnings of words with alternate forms designed for this use. This is common in Latin connecting scripts, and required in various non-Latins like Arabic.
    11. Standard Ligatures
      Replaces a sequence of glyphs with a single glyph, e.g. 'fi', 'fl'. This feature is enabled by default and cannot currently be disabled.
    12. Lining Figures
      This feature changes selected figures from oldstyle to the default lining form.
    13. Localized Forms
    14. Medial Forms
    15. Numerators
      Replaces selected figures which precede a slash with numerator figures, and replaces the typographic slash with the fraction slash.
    16. Ordinals
      Replaces default alphabetic glyphs with the corresponding ordinal forms for use after figures.
    17. Proportional Figures
      Replaces figure glyphs set on uniform (tabular) widths with corresponding glyphs set on glyph-specific (proportional) widths. Tabular widths will generally be the default, but this cannot be safely assumed. Of course this feature would not be present in monospaced designs.
    18. Required Ligatures
    19. Stylistic Alternates
      Replaces the default forms with stylistic alternates. Note that there may be more than one stylistic alternate for a given character.
    20. Scientific Inferiors
      Replaces lining or oldstyle figures with inferior figures (smaller glyphs which sit lower than the standard baseline, primarily for chemical or mathematical notation). May also replace lowercase characters with alphabetic inferiors.
    21. Stylistic Set
      Stylistic alternatives grouped as sets.
    22. Subscript
      The "subs" feature may replace a default glyph with a subscript glyph, or it may combine a glyph substitution with positioning adjustments for proper placement.
    23. Superscript
      Replaces lining or oldstyle figures with superior figures (primarily for footnote indication), and replaces lowercase letters with superior letters (primarily for abbreviated French titles).
    24. Tabular Figures
      Replaces figure glyphs set on proportional widths with corresponding glyphs set on uniform (tabular) widths. Tabular widths will generally be the default, but this cannot be safely assumed. Of course this feature would not be present in monospaced designs.
