Gibson Font is a Sans-Serif typeface designed by eminent Canadian designer Rod McDonald FGDC and manufactured by Patrick Griffin and Kevin King of Canada Type, in honor of John Gibson FGDC (1928-2011). The Gibson family is available through Canada Type and its popular dealers. Canada Type will donate all proceeds from its sale to a variety of causes with the goal of improving the typographic arts and elevating design education in Canada.
Each of the eight Gibson fonts comes with 370 characters and has extended support for Latin-based languages. The Gibson family ships in a cross-platform OpenType format. Avenir, Sans Museum, Caslons Egyptian, and many more fonts are mostly similar to the Gibson font. This is a free font.
