Note. Specimen of the typeface Tara. Copyright by Tania Álvarez.

Tara is a serif font family designed for immersive reading. Its design considers a high x-height, balanced with high-contrast letterforms and wedge-shaped serifs that propose an elegant and functional character at reading sizes. The axis of tension running through the letters is almost vertical; however, Tara is inspired by old-style typefaces, characterized by the use of diagonal axes. The family includes four weights ranging from Regular to Bold, with corresponding italics. Many of Tara's lowercase typefaces retain calligraphic strokes in their details, such as the terminal of the "a" vertical lowercase and the ear of the "g". Italics contain a few dozen slash alternates, for use in headlines, titles and logo designs. All fonts include small caps, 14 f ligatures and case-sensitive punctuation marks. The default numeric style is old-style proportional, with tabular and aligned figures available as OpenType alternatives.
