Large sizes, wide spacing
Give these faces size and air. Below roughly 16 points the hairlines break up in print and disappear on standard screens, so keep a sturdier serif for body text. Uppercase settings with wide letter spacing are what makes luxury wordmarks work, and the same trick carries headlines. Avoid placing them over busy images where the thin strokes are swallowed.
Modern Serif Font: common questions
- Why do these fonts look thin when printed?
- The hairline strokes are at the limit of what ink and paper can hold. Increase the size, choose a heavier cut, or print on smoother stock.
- What are high-contrast serifs good for?
- Fashion and beauty branding, magazine headlines, luxury packaging, and book covers that need elegance.
- What should I pair them with?
- A plain sans serif for body text and captions. The contrast between the two is already strong.
