Example is a workhorse neo-grotesque, an alternative for those seeking an ageless sans but wishing to avoid the ordinary choices. The basic weights are clean, handsome and economically proportioned – characters are not as wide as Helvetica, though not condensed. Rounded characters are not as ‘squarified’.

Numerals are the same height as capitals, so titles and headlines line up efficiently. The lowercase L has a slightly curved foot which distinguishes it from the uppercase i and matches the vestigial tail of the a. The Italics feature a single-storey a and an f with descender hook, otherwise italic characters are optically corrected obliques. Example has a full complement of Latin Extended-A characters, Welsh diacritics and Irish dotted consonants.
