Northwestern’s typography is flexible enough to meet a wide range of situations and requirements. Campton and Akkurat Pro are our sans-serif fonts. Campton works well for large, expressive headlines, while Akkurat Pro functions well in situations with small text or large lists. Periodico Display and Text is our serif font, appropriate for use at any size. Substitute fonts can be used when the brand fonts are unavailable.
We have purchased the rights to use them for University purposes on the web and in print. Global Marketing works with communications leaders in each school/unit to ensure the graphic design staffs have access to these fonts.

Periódico Text is meant to be used for longer chunks of copy at smaller sizes. Its more balanced construction allows for greater legibility, even at smaller sizes. Use Periódico Text for body copy from 5 points up, and for subhead and captions up to 15 points.
