About Inter

Rasmus Andersson spent years refining this neo-grotesque specifically for computer screens, optimizing letter spacing, x-height, and stroke contrast for high readability at small sizes on digital displays. An optical size axis (opsz) lets the font automatically adjust its design for captions versus headlines, while the weight axis covers the full range from thin to black. It has become the de facto choice for dashboards, documentation sites, and developer tools worldwide.

Typography Concepts

  • Baseline

    The invisible line on which most letters sit. Descenders extend below the baseline.

  • x-height

    The height of lowercase letters (like 'x') measured from the baseline. A key factor in perceived font size and readability.

  • Ascender

    The part of a lowercase letter that extends above the x-height, as in 'b', 'd', 'h', 'k', 'l'.

  • Descender

    The part of a letter that extends below the baseline, as in 'g', 'j', 'p', 'q', 'y'.

  • Cap Height

    The height of a capital letter measured from the baseline to the top of flat capitals like 'H' or 'I'.

  • Glyph

    A single visual representation of a character. One character can have multiple glyphs (e.g., regular and italic 'a').
