Serif Book Warm

Serif Book Warm's lowercase x reaches 69.9% of the capital height, close to the 69.6% median for serif fonts, taller than 21 of the 39 other serif fonts. Ascenders on b, d, h, k and l rise 6.3% above the capitals, and descenders on g, j, p, q and y drop 28.8% of the cap height below the baseline, shallower than 21 of the 39 other serif fonts. Its letters are of average width for serif fonts: an average lowercase letter, spacing included, is 88.3% as wide as the capitals are tall (an average capital, 100.7%), within 2.8% of the median. The o is close to a circle, 1.13 times as wide as it is tall, and M is the widest capital, at 1.11 times the width of H. Round letters overshoot: O rises 2.5% of the cap height above H and dips 1.2% below the baseline.

The letters stand upright, with no measurable slant. Vertical stems measure 22.9% of the cap height, heavier than 33 of the 35 other serif fonts. Ink covers 36% of each lowercase letter's box (its advance width by the cap height), darker than 24 of the 39 other serif fonts. Strokes change thickness with direction: the sides of o and O are 4.5 times as thick as their tops and bottoms.

Its 95 characters include 52 Latin letters, plus 43 figures, punctuation marks and symbols; there are no accented Latin letters beyond A to Z. The word space measures 45.9% of the cap height, and the blank space either side of a lowercase letter takes up 11.4% 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 Serif Book Warm will not line up exactly.
