Furthermore, DIN Max comes now with cleaner shapes and higher legibility even at small sizes whilst its robust strokes and revised spacing makes the new version much more readable. Two additional widths, Extra Compressed and Wide, were added at both ends of the design spectrum, with the very narrow widths to be well suited for display use, whereas the wide version is equally comfortable for display and text use. Expanding the utility of DIN Max we introduce a number of new novelties. DIN Max is a brand new variable type system completely re-designed and re-imagined from the ground up with 3 design axes. It was based on the PF DIN Text type system, a series of typefaces originally designed in 2002, quoted by Publish magazine as being “an overkill series for complex corporate identity projects”. The landscape of visual communication is changing with a fast pace and this new release redefines DIN in order to handle the demands of modern technology.
