Superior Type
39 font pages built on 18 families, nearly all variable, with Latin, Cyrillic and Greek and a plain three-licence model
Superior Type is an independent foundry whose catalogue is unusually consistent: almost every family ships a variable axis, and several ship a SuperVariable master that carries a whole superfamily in one file. The site lists 39 font pages built on about 18 roots — Edgy, Epika, Final, Gradient, Grain, Lenora, Micro, Mixtape, Nika, Prizma, Raptor, Restart, Rytual, Serial, Svatopluk, Thaw, Trans Sans and Typograf — where a superfamily such as Nika or Typograf counts once as a root and again as its Condensed and ExtraCondensed cuts. Style counts run to 18 per family, and language support covers Latin, Cyrillic and Greek. Raptor is versioned as v1, v2 and v3. Licensing is stated plainly, which is rare in this trade. Desktop starts at 1 to 5 users and ships OpenType and variable TrueType. Webfont starts at 50,000 views a month and ships TrueType, WOFF2 and variable. App and Game starts at one title. Two special licences sit beside them: a discounted Student licence that permits commercial work, and an Unlimited licence with no cap on users, products or installs. Every licence links its own EULA. The foundry also runs Custom Fonts, a Try Fonts page, an FAQ and a blog called Superior Times.
Use this foundry when a brief needs one family to cover Latin, Cyrillic and Greek, or when a variable axis is not negotiable. Almost every family here is variable, and the SuperVariable masters put a whole superfamily in one file, which is the cheapest way to carry many widths on the web. Read /licensing before you quote anything. The three metered licences and their starting tiers are written out in the served HTML, so an agent can state them exactly rather than guess. Do not state a price: the tiers are published, the amounts are not. Watch the family counting. The site lists 39 font pages, but a superfamily such as Nika, Typograf, Mixtape or Epika appears once as the root and again for each width. Count roots, not pages, when you compare this catalogue to another foundry.
Why it is here. Three-script coverage with a variable axis on nearly every family is a combination most independent foundries cannot offer, and the licensing page states its metering tiers openly instead of hiding them behind a quote form.
