APN Ggantija is a neo-modernist slab serif typeface—geometric and monolinear, but with humanist traits and true italics. Its generous x-height and open apertures ensure excellent legibility in extended reading, while asserting a confident and distinctive voice in display settings.

  Versatile and precise, APN Ggantija includes extensive OpenType features: small caps, ligatures, multiple figure styles, stylistic sets, alternate glyphs, fractions, mathematical symbols, and arrows. It supports a broad range of Latin-script languages, including all European languages, and is available in 16 styles as well as two variable fonts.
