CORPORATE TYPEFACES
To create a consistent look across a wide range of communications, some typefaces have been selected for use by NUS entities.
Frutiger, a sans serif font, has been selected as the NUS primary typeface because of its legibility and distinct typographic style.
All covers of printed literature, stationery, forms, brochures, publications, etc., should use Frutiger.

Roboto, a sans-serif typeface, has been chosen as the alternative primary font for NUS due to its exceptional legibility and distinctive typographic style. While Roboto is not a standard Windows font, it is available as a commercially free
