Range of the work

The lowercase runs from Raleway, the shortest at 521 units per 1,000 em, to Orbitron at 580. In width, Raleway is the narrowest (526) and Orbitron the widest (635). Beyond Latin, the families cover three subsets: Cyrillic, Cyrillic Extended, Vietnamese. Measured against the medians of their own classes, four of the four families with ascenders have a taller x-height, four of all four set a wider lowercase and two a darker one.
