Mandatory

Mandatory is a full font developed from the typeface used for UK vehicle registration plates. There is improved stroke separation on the M and W which are pointed at the centre.

For designers, the font is completed with small capitals for the lower case, currency symbols, punctuation marks, printers’ symbols and accented characters.

Version 5 (2023) contains heavier small caps characters. These better match the weight of the uppercase letters and make the font more useful for mixed case text.

Version 5 also includes numerous outline and spacing improvements.

For a greater choice of weights and styles, see also K-Type Charles Wright.
