Typography
The WordPress brand uses two Emigre typefaces for it’s identity – Mrs. Eaves Small Caps and Dalliance – and Open Sans for everything else.
The logotype uses Mrs. Eaves and Dalliance, but those typefaces are reserved for the Logotype only and should not be used elsewhere.
Open Sans
Open Sans is a humanist sans serif typeface designed by Steve Matteson, Type Director of Ascender Corp. Designed with an upright stress, open forms, and a neutral yet friendly appearance. It was optimized for print, web, and mobile interfaces, and has excellent legibility characteristics in its letterforms. Open Sans has fantastic character support for multiple languages.
