With its vast array of weights, the extended language support, but most of all its meticulous and elaborate design, it has proved itself valuable to numerous design agencies around the world. The first set of fonts was completed in 2002 as a group of 3 families which included condensed and compressed versions. Its letterforms divert from the stiff geometric structure of the original and introduce instead elements which are familiar, softer and easier to read. It was based on the original standards but was specifically designed to fit typographic requirements.

Parachute® was set out to fill this gap by introducing the PF DIN series which has become ever since the most comprehensive and sophisticated set of DIN typefaces. By early 2000, it became apparent that the existing DIN-based fonts did not fulfil the ever-increasing demand for a diverse set of weights and additional support for non-Latin languages. Ever since its first publication in the 1930’s, several type foundries adopted the original designs for digital photocomposition.

Unfortunately, these early letters lacked elegance and were not properly designed for typographic applications. The purpose of the original DIN 1451 standard was to lay down a style of lettering which is timeless and easily legible.

This font is a geometric sans serif family characterized by its simplicity and extensive functionality.
