Garvis Italic

Of more than 160 IPA symbols, relatively few will be used to transcribe speech in any one language, with various levels of precision. A precise phonetic transcription, in which sounds are specified in detail, is known as a narrow transcription.

Garvis Semibold

IPA letters have been incorporated into the alphabets of various languages. This has created the need for capital variants. For example, Kabiyè of northern Togo has Ɖ ɖ, Ŋ ŋ, Ɣ ɣ, Ɔ ɔ, Ɛ ɛ, Ʋ ʋ.

Garvis Regular

Each character, letter or diacritic, is assigned a number, to prevent confusion between similar characters (such as ɵ and θ, ɤ and ɣ, or ʃ and ʄ) in such situations as the printing of manuscripts. The categories of sounds are assigned different ranges of numbers.

Garvis Regular

There is an occasional star, like chi Carinae, whose spectrum consists almost wholly of bright lines, in general bearing no apparent relationship to the bright lines in the spectra of the gaseous nebulae except that the hydrogen lines are there, as they are almost everywhere. There is reason to believe that such a spectrum indicates the existence of a very extensive and very hot atmosphere

About Garvis

Designed to bridge the gap between Dutch Fleischmann and neoclassical type, Garvis brings sturdiness and legibility, particularly on the web and at small sizes, without a loss of character or a sacrifice of aesthetics.

At display sizes, Garvis shows the subtle inconsistencies commonly found in traditional metal type printing. As the size is reduced, this detail virtually disappears so as not to become distracting at text sizes. Even so, it gives the text a warm, human quality.

Not only is it a pretty face for editorial and book usage, Garvis was built for linguistic and language support, Garvis includes support for all contemporary (and many historic), Latin-based Orthographies as well as complete IPA support.

You can also read Dan Reynolds’ review of Garvis for Typographica’s Favorite Typefaces of 2012 here.
