LTR Slab Extended is the new name for an old friend. Inspired by historic models but not a revival, this low-contrast, slab-serif is the perfect choice when you’ve got all kinds of space to spread out. A variable font, the weights can be dialed way up for page-filling professing. Combine lines of different weights to liven up long lists.

Why the name change? More trademark shennenigans? No. At the time, we picked the name from a map of Texas because we like the sound of it. But the typeface has nothing to do with Mexican / American history and its name shouldn’t either. “Slab Extended” is a good description that fits well in the tradition of dull foundry names.
