Adobe KeplerStd

An exercise in comprehensive CSS-3 Classification

This Adobe font has 42 font-groups and around 168 font-faces.

Adobe fonts use an optical display model including:

         Display, Subhead, Text, Caption

There is the font weight model including:

         Light Standard Medium Semi-bold bold heavy

In additon the font-stretch options are also available including:

        condensed semi-condensed standard extended

9.1 Optical Models

Optical models are optimized for font size. As such they need to be separated so a designer can apply the appropriate option for a particular use.

Rather than mixing the optical models it seems to make sense to keep these separate so a designer knows which optical model to apply where. So for a font with extended font-families like this one, we define four main font families:

KeplerText

KeplerDisplay

KeplerSubhead

KeplerCaption

9.1.1 Font-family KeplerText

The CSS font-family will contain nine font groups and 36 font-faces. The font groups are based on the four-font grouping model (regular, bold, italic, bold-italic). As can be seen in the table below, this doesn't match the CSS direct size heirarchy which in fact makes more sense. The font-face names do  match the CSS heirarchy very well.

  1. Kepler Std
  2. Kepler Std Ext
  3. Kepler Std Light
  4. Kepler Std Light Ext
  5. Kepler Std Light Scn
  6. Kepler Std Medium
  7. Kepler Std Medium Ext
  8. Kepler Std Medium Scn
  9. Kepler Std Scn
