A companion to Springsteel (sans), this serif typeface is intended for longer text blocks and smaller sizes.

Like the sans-serif, it has unusual construction using curves on the outside and straight lines inside characters, giving it quite an expressive and warm feel. It contains small caps and old-style figures, as well as superior/inferior figures and common fractions and mathematical symbols. It supports Western plus Nordic, Eastern European and Turkish languages.

Excellent spacing and extensive kerning (over 2800 pairs) provided by Igino Marini/iKern.

The free fonts in the Springsteel Serif Extreme family (thin and heavy weights) should only be used as display typefaces, at large size and short text blocks.
