Background

Pokerface™ is an industrious mixed-case display font devised on the theme of playing cards, designed by Jim Ford. Most letterforms in the font have ‘four of a kind’ while some are only available in pairs. It features Clarendon-style slab serif and grotesque sans serif forms. Furthermore, the letterforms are ‘shuffled’ to give a random appearance in standard text. It fuses a utilitarian sturdiness with a soft and friendly feel, and adds a bold flare to headlines, logos and posters. Character Set – Latin 1, OpenType extras.
