Range of the work

The lowercase runs from Pompiere, the shortest at 373 units per 1,000 em, to Arbutus at 522. In width, Pompiere is the narrowest (330) and Arbutus the widest (708). Measured against the medians of their own classes, three of the five families with ascenders have a taller x-height, three of all five set a wider lowercase and four a darker one.
