League Sans

League Sans's lowercase x reaches 75% of the capital height, close to the 76.2% median for display fonts, lower than 53 of the 97 other display fonts. Ascenders on b, d, h, k and l line up with the capitals (100% of their height), and descenders on g, j, p, q and y drop 25% of the cap height below the baseline, deeper than 64 of the 97 other display fonts. League Sans runs 6.2% narrower than the median for display fonts: an average lowercase letter, spacing included, is 83.9% as wide as the capitals are tall (an average capital, 93.6%). The o is close to a circle, 1.06 times as wide as it is tall, and W is the widest capital, at 1.20 times the width of H. Round letters overshoot: O rises 2.5% of the cap height above H and dips 1.3% below the baseline.

Ink covers 45.8% of each lowercase letter's box (its advance width by the cap height), darker than 63 of the 97 other display fonts. Each solid letter is ringed by an outline with a clear gap between them, as on college lettering.

Its 3,966 characters include 3,756 Chinese and 105 Latin letters, plus 105 figures, punctuation marks and symbols; 53 of the Latin letters are accented or special forms beyond A to Z. The word space measures 32.8% of the cap height, and the blank space either side of a lowercase letter takes up 13.3% of its width. Spacing is adjusted with 88 kerning pairs, more than 53 of the 97 other display fonts. The tightest of them is AY, which closes up by 16.3% of the cap height. The figures have different widths, so columns of numbers set in League Sans will not line up exactly.
