When it comes to newspapers, fonts must be completely clear and unobtrusive in order to facilitate the reading experience. The fonts below are perfect examples of that: combining legibility with subtle visual interest elements that make each of them feel unique without becoming overwhelming.
TT Jeanevers
Based on the Dutch serif fonts noted for their irregular slants and asymmetrical serifs, TT Jeanevers is a modern take that plays with these different aspects. The package comes with twelve fonts: half upright and half true italic. It also comes with two different stylistic sets that give the font a more hand-drawn feel.
Haboro Serif
The newest edition in a successful line of fonts in the online design market, Haboro Serif maintains its original script-inspired terminals while adding a balanced and unique serif. If you prefer the standard serif look, Haboro Serif comes with a standard serif set as well. It comes in nearly every imaginable weight, so no matter what, Haboro will work for you.
TT Backwards
TT Backwards is a font that looks forward from the past. It was inspired by the uniform and crisp signs, posters, and books from the former USSR. In addition to five line weights, TT Backwards also comes with a script and grotesque options for a variety of choices whether it’s used as a headline or body text.
TT Wellingtons
Mixing warm humanism with geometric grotesque styles, TT Wellingtons is a font all on its own. It’s eighteen weights (half regular, half true italics) balance the character of hand-drawn fonts with simple functional shapes. The package also includes ligatures and stylistic alternates.
Informative
The way people consume news is changing and the infographic is one of the biggest trends in presenting information. By combining an impeccably crisp sans with a collection of clean infographic symbols, Informative creates a visual language that suits the current age of screen reading. It comes in seven weights and its special characters come in both outline and black versions.
Haboro Sans
Like the new Haboro Serif, the sans that inspired it embraces the functionality of geometric shapes. In addition to multiple line weights, the font comes with glyphs that give you special options for titling, small caps, or old style figures. It’s script inspired but modern look will add a touch of character without losing uniformity.
Alfabetica
Alfabetica brings a new energy and humanism to grotesque fonts. Its smooth strokes and open style give a friendly and humble tone without distracting from the content. The font package contains advanced OpenType support along with ligatures, case-sensitive forms, fractions, and small caps.
Solitas Serif
With soft strokes and light rounded corners and serifs, Solitas is easy on the eyes. It’s functional and content-oriented while displaying a distinctive style. No matter what weight, width, or style (italics or regular), it maintains its elegant flowing character.
SchussNewsPro No.22
Siting at the intersection between a slab and a serif, Schuss is a font made for the news. Crafted specifically to maintain its clean readability for harsh environments with a ton of text, this body font will not leave you disappointed.
Denim Sans Serif Font
For the news site that doesn’t take itself too seriously, Denim is a fun and casual sans that stands crisply and legibly on any background. Slender letters and narrow spacing give a very contemporary feel to this versatile font.
