Details

Description:
The ultra light sister of Exempla Sans Medium... Sharp eyes will see that it's not the exact sister yet; I modified some details here that I didn't like and will also modifiy them in Exempla Sans Medium soon to make the family genetically homogeneous.

Hope you like it... Definitely one of my most useful fontstructions. And I got dangerously close to the brink of madness when I had to do every circumflex and every caron of the extended latin set with brickstacking... ;)

I admire Exemplas. Oh yes. What I admire even more is your patience. Oh yes yes.

Thanks everyone!

@cayo: Muchas gracias... El sampler fue hecho en algunos minutos. De veces es increíble como una fuente cambia de impacto simplemente con una combinación de colores diferentes. En negro y blanco casi es aburrido, y en amarillo y gris ya parece supercool... And I love familystructing too. Just a shame it's so much work to raise one. I guess every fontfamily-father would confirm that. ;)

@igorrossi: Not quite the entire latin set; I've left out Extended Latin B.

@thalamic: Dude... and patience it took. I had to sit down, take some deep breaths, steady my focus and think about all the joy I've ever experienced because of fontstructing before I was able to write that "more weights to come..." on the sample, hehe... Kidding. I think the only thing that really put my patience to the test was the fact that you can't copy brickstacks.
