Diodrum Thai Variable Font Family was designed by Hitesh Malaviya and published by Indian Type Foundry. Diodrum Thai Variable contains 2 styles and family package options. Diodrum Thai is a low-contrast font family optimized for Corporate Design, Editorial Design, and UI/UX projects. To describe Diodrum Thai in Latin-script terminology, its loopless Thai-script letterforms are sans serif, matching the Latin-script characters in the typeface. Some of the spurless nature behind Diodrums Latin design has been carried over to the loopless Thai letters. Spurless typefaces feature smooth transitions from letters stems into their curved strokes just look at Diodrums lowercase n. Finally, many of Diodrums strokes begin or end with lightly-sheared lines. These subtle angles add a trace of the calligraphers hand back into the generally-static language of sans serif types. Diodrum Thai is available in two formats. The traditional method is to use the familys 12 static OpenType font files. Those range across six weights from Extralight to Bold. Each weight has an Italic companion. Weve also created two Variable Fonts. There is one for the upright styles and another for the italics; the fonts have weight axes programmed inside them. While the static-format fonts offer a good intermediary-step selection, users who install the Variable Fonts have vastly greater control over their texts stroke width. The Akhand Thai Variable Fonts weight axis allows users to differentiate between almost 1,000 possible font weights. As in many of the Indian Type Foundrys typefaces, Diodrum Thais design was a group effort. Hitesh Malaviya created the Thai-script portion, while the Latin-script glyphs were developed by Jérémie Hornus, Clara Jullien, and Alisa Nowak.
