- Description
- Constantia is a serif typeface created by John Hudson and released by Microsoft in 2004. It is part of the ClearType Font Collection and was designed to work seamlessly with the ClearType text rendering system. Influenced by Eric Gill’s Perpetua design, Constantia features triangular serifs that resemble a chisel. The font offers small capitals, alternative spacing and punctuation for all caps text, numbers enclosed by circles, and superscript and subscript glyphs, providing a fresh yet familiar look with a hint of Palatino's calligraphic flavor. Constantia is versatile and suitable for both print and on-screen uses.

Usage Instructions
