| That is (3 x 8 x 6), a total of 144 different fonts, each with all character positions filled, each fully kerned, none using Adobe standard encoding (so all symbol characters have been specially designed for each weight and form), and with true italics (drawn, not sloped roman). |
| The italic forms are one of the most distinctive aspects of this family. Study of other low-contrast typeface designs shows that the italics are often little more than cleaned-up sloped forms. Not the case with Thesis: the italics stand on their own as unique letterforms, while perfectly complementing the Thesis roman forms. |
