It shares its origin, a certain flavour and a great deal of its idiosyncrasies, but while Harri is an uppercase-only typeface intended for display uses, Harri Text is conceived as a text type family, including a new extra-light weight, italics, small caps and other additions that make it suitable for editorial purposes. Harri Text is more than an extension of Harri. This means Noam Text can be the go-to family across the board and capitalise on the desire for clear typographic progress in this modern age. Aligned with TypeTogetherвЂ™s commitment to produce high-quality type for the global market, the complete Noam Text family displays an impressive amount of discretion, applying to wide use-cases by not edging too close to religious motifs or imbibing in secular indulgence. Noam TextвЂ™s three total weights provide a proper solution for integrating texts in both scripts, as well as a contemporary alternative for use in books, newspapers, and magazine design. These virtues help it endure harsh printing conditions and subpar inks and paper. Noam Text LatinвЂ™s italic is rounded and reading friendly, is condensed to generate a lighter texture than the roman, and has a flowing stance.

Originally derived from the Hebrew, the shallow horizontal curves and strong baseline serifs provide dynamism and enhance the reading flow. Noam Text is intended mostly for setting long texts, so it strives to achieve maximum legibility in minimum space with its large x-height, short and fairly condensed Latin capitals, large and open counters, and low contrast. Among other technologically advanced details, Noam Text was programmed for all expected scenarios of mixing Hebrew, Latin, figures, and punctuation. Of unique importance - all punctuation marks have a Hebrew version, which makes each script complete and uncompromising.

All these have been taken into account in Noam TextвЂ™s modern design. Hebrew and Latin have opposite reading directions, creating many issues: opposing directionality of the open counters vertical stress in Latin, but horizontal in Hebrew fewer extenders in Hebrew and no Hebrew capital letters. In short order, users will recognise Noam Text as a source of progress in its bilingual abilities. Noam TextвЂ™s design goal was to create a coherent family with both Latin and Hebrew serif text typefaces, each authentic to its own script, and which would serve as an alternative to last centuryвЂ™s predecessor. Since 1908, the Frank-RГјhl fonts have dominated the Hebrew book and newspaper market. In this way, TypeTogether is happy to introduce Noam Text: A Hebrew and Latin serif font that builds on its heritage with the twin tools of honour and progress. It canвЂ™t really be called progress unless it honours its history. Adi SternвЂ™s Noam Text shows that typographic progress is often in the small things - in the perfecting of familiar traditions and in staying loyal to the spirit of what came before.
