About

About Keyhole Counter Roman 3d

With an x-height of 75.2% of the cap height, its lowercase stands above the 71.5% median for serif fonts, taller than 79 of the 98 other serif fonts. Ascenders on b, d, h, k and l rise 8.2% above the capitals, and descenders on g, j, p, q and y drop 28.3% of the cap height below the baseline, deeper than 52 of the 98 other serif fonts. Its letters are of average width for serif fonts: an average lowercase letter, spacing included, is 84.6% as wide as the capitals are tall (an average capital, 99%), within 2.9% of the median. The o is close to a circle, 1.02 times as wide as it is tall, and M is the widest capital, at 1.12 times the width of H. Round letters overshoot: O rises 3.7% of the cap height above H and dips 1% below the baseline.

Ink covers 47.6% of each lowercase letter's box (its advance width by the cap height), darker than 91 of the 98 other serif fonts. Each letter carries a solid 3D extrusion joined to its face.

Its 148 characters include 105 Latin letters, plus 43 figures, punctuation marks and symbols; 53 of the Latin letters are accented or special forms beyond A to Z. The word space measures 40.5% of the cap height, and the blank space either side of a lowercase letter takes up 6.7% of its width. The font carries no kerning, so spacing comes from each letter’s own side bearings. The figures have different widths, so columns of numbers set in Keyhole Counter Roman 3d will not line up exactly.

Structure
Solid extruded 3D shadow behind the face of Keyhole Counter Roman: Upright medium-width low-to-medium contrast Roman with a repeatable single connected keyhole-shaped white counter in enclosed bowls. In B, P, R, b, d, p, q, 8, a and g, each enclosed counter has a rounded upper chamber that continuously narrows through a vertical waist into a smaller rounded lower chamber. It remains one continuous white void: never a black divider, black island, horizontal bar, detached icon, separate lower hole or a second counter. O, o and D retain an ordinary uninterrupted oval counter. The outside silhouettes, stems, serifs and terminals stay conventional connected Roman forms so the counter system, rather than an effect, supplies the structural distinction. It is not Lens Counter Slab's horizontal almond opening, Pinched Counter Grotesk's horizontal waist, Chamfer Counter Sans, Clover Counter Display, Window Arch Slab, Valentine Bow Serif, a width/weight adjustment, terminal-only change, outline, shadow, stripe or detached decoration
