Jaldi, the Devanagari typeface family designed as a complement of Asap.

Jaldi is a libre Devanagari typeface family designed as a complement to Asap* (“As Soon As Possible”). Jaldi is a contemporary sans-serif non-modular Devanagari family with subtle rounded corners designed by Nicolás Silva and Pablo Cosgaya. It comes in two weights (Regular and Bold) and was specially developed for screen as a webfont and desktop font, too. It offers a standardised character width on all styles, which means that the lines of text remain the same length. This useful feature allows users to change type styles on-the-go without reflowing the text body. The Latin version of Jaldi was based on Ancha (designed by Pablo Cosgaya & Héctor Gatti) and was developed with the collaboration of the Omnibus-Type team.

*Jaldi (जल्दी) is the Hindi word for ‘soon’.

####Jaldi Family contains:

• regular
• bold
