Calibri regular is part of the modern sans serif family with subtle roundings on stems and corners. Calibri Fonts Regular's proportions allow high impact in tightly set lines of big and small text alike. Calibri's many curves and the new rasteriser team up in bigger sizes to reveal a warm and soft character. Calibri Fonts Regular is featured in the Microsoft ClearType Font Collection, a set of Calibri fonts developed to take advantage of ClearType to improve the reading experience in Windows Vista and Office 2007.
The Calibri fonts were designed by Lucas de Groot, a Dutch type designer.He is the head of the type foundry Fontfabrik. De Groot is mostly known for creating the font family Thesis (TheSans, TheSerif, TheMix, TheSansMono and later TheAntiqua) and Corpid (previously known as AgroSans). Luc de Groot designed custom fonts such as Calibri and Consolas for Microsoft Windows Vista and Microsoft Windows 7, for magazines and newspapers like Der Spiegel with ‘SpiegelSans’ and corporations like Sun Microsystems with ‘SunSans’. Lucas de Groot teaches at the Design Faculty of the University of Applied Sciences in Potsdam, Germany.
