About FF DIN
FF DIN is a sans-serif typeface in the industrial, or grotesque, style. It was designed in 1995 by Albert-Jan Pool, based on DIN-Mittelschrift and DIN-Engschrift, as defined in the German standard DIN 1451. DIN is an acronym for Deutsches Institut für Normung (German Institute of Standardisation). It was published by FontShop in its FontFont library of typefaces. FF DIN has an unadorned appearance with high x-height and a large series of weights.
