About Magpie Font Family


Magpie is a font family consisting of three sub-families with both regular and italic styles.


Originally designed on squared paper, over time it has moved further and further away from this rigid grid, although its appearance is still based on it, so it can easily be used for logotypes or headlines with strict grid-based layouts.


While Magpie Text is suitable for headlines and short texts, Magpie Display is ideal for logotypes or more playful headlines. Finally, Magpie Mix is a combination of both families. Magpie Text Regular represents stability, Magpie Display Italic is ideal for dynamic logos or headlines.


To cover more languages, cyrillic and greek letters were added and Magpie can be used for nearly a hundred languages.


In addition to the four common numeral variants, special numerals, punctuations and symbols for all-caps (c2sc) are included. Furthermore case-sensitive punctuations and symbols are available.


To expand the typographic possibilities, four stylistic sets, different symbols, forms and standard- and discretionary ligatures have been added.


Each Magpie-font contains more than 880 glyphs.
