Chunky rounded display with a heavy outer keyline
Politer
Politer is a chunky rounded display drawn with a thick cream keyline and a thin black inner line: uneven hand-made widths, rounded slab terminals, a wide O and a T whose arms overhang, shown with each letter in a different flat colour.

Letterform structure
of Politer.
The word is set at the centre of the page and every letter is filled with its own colour, but the construction is consistent: a heavy rounded slab skeleton, a cream outer keyline of even thickness, and a thin dark line inside it that separates the fill from the outline, so the letters read as cut stickers rather than printed type. Widths vary by letter in a way that looks hand-drawn, with the P, R and E noticeably narrower than the O and the T, and the counters are small and rounded, which suits the face to short words at large sizes and to nothing smaller than about 24 pt. The ground is a geometric mockup of pale paper planes and pink shapes, and the surrounding lines are small tracked capitals in a light serif, so the busy display face is the only decorative element on the page. This is a face for posters, packaging stickers and playful event graphics where the keyline can carry a second colour cheaply.

Sticker sheet for a children's party
A chunky keylined face survives being cut out by hand and stuck on a wall, because the outer line keeps the letters visible even when the fill colour matches the surface.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print A5 on adhesive stock: the word at 40 pt, one colour per letter, with a 3 mm outer keyline in cream and a 2 mm cream gap to the cut line. Keep 6 mm of clear adhesive around each letter so the knife line in the shop stays clean.
Pre-production check
Check the cut file at actual size: the 3 mm keyline must not pinch at the joins of the R and the P, and the keyline has to stay visible when the sticker is applied to a cream wall. Confirm the 2 mm gap holds on a vinyl cutter.
Label for a soft drinks range
A keylined display face reads as a hand-lettered bottle label while staying cheap to print, because the extra line is one more flat plate rather than a process image.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Round label of 70 mm: the name at 22 pt with a 1.5 mm keyline, the flavour in a 7 pt sans beneath, and the volume in 6 pt caps at the foot. Keep the keyline clear of the label edge by 5 mm on all sides.
Pre-production check
Check the keyline at print size on the chosen stock, where flexo gain thickens a 1.5 mm line to nearly 1.8 mm and can close the counters of the O. Confirm the 6 pt caps stay readable on a curved surface at the label's top arc.
Poster for a school fair
A multicolour chunky face with a keyline gives an A3 poster the look of a sign painted by hand, and it holds the eye at a distance where smaller type does not.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
A3 portrait: the word at 130 mm cap height spanning the width, one flat colour per letter and a 5 mm cream keyline, with the date in a bold sans at 24 mm beneath and the venue at 12 mm. Keep the display word in the upper two thirds.
Pre-production check
Check the poster at three metres in the corridor, where the keyline has to separate two neighbouring letters of similar value; if it does not, adjust the fills rather than the outline. Confirm the date line stays clear of the descending keyline.
