About Belgato Font Family


Belgato is a vintage-inspired typeface with delicate details. It comes in six weights – plus italics! – for a total of 12 fonts, making it a highly versatile display face. The variable font version allows for ultimateweight and slant customization in print and web.


Belgato has Latin, Greek, and Cyrillic alphabets, and supports dozens of languages, making it ideal for multilingual branding, publications, ads, social media, and more!


I had so much fun designing this typeface, playing with classic serif letterforms to create an elegant, mid-century modern vibe. Belgato Light is fresh, airy, and delicate – perfect for feminine branding. By contrast, Belgato Black boasts fat curves with thin details, perfectly-suited to bold layouts and retro branding projects.


Each Belgato font has 665 glyphs, encompassing:

- the Latin alphabet (including hundreds of accented characters)

- the Modern Greek alphabet

- the Cyrillic alphabet (for Russian, Ukrainian, Bulgarian, and Serbo-Croatian)

- discretionary ligatures

- stylistic and alternate glyphs

- numerals (lining and old style), small figures, and fractions

- extensive punctuation, symbols, and diacritical markings


Software:

No special software is required to use Belgato fonts. You can even use these fonts with Canva! To access Belgato’s variable font features, ligatures, and stylistic alternates, it is best to use software that supports these functions (Adobe programs, Corel Draw, Sketch, etc).


Languages:

Belgato supports dozens of languages which use the Latin, Greek, and Cyrillic alphabets. Among the most common languages it supports are: English, Bulgarian, Catalan, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Filipino, Finnish, Flemish, French, German, Modern Greek, Hungarian, Icelandic, Indonesian, Italian, Luxembourgish, Maltese, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Serbo-Croatian, Spanish, Swedish, Swiss German, Turkish, and Ukrainian.
