DNP has developed and maintained the Shueitai type family since the company started (as Shueisha) more than a century ago.
DNP Shuei Mincho is the main typeface in the Shueitai family, which has a rich variety of typefaces. DNP Shuei Mincho has been used for many years to convey textual information in books and magazines. The arresting visual effect of glyph shapes drawn with a single stroke, typically seen in the characters ‘い’ and ‘こ’, gives the reader a sense of reliability. With heavier horizontal strokes than other Mincho style typefaces, DNP Shuei Mincho retains sufficient darkness with less eyestrain, free from undesirable high-contrast glare.
There are three weight variations: L, M and B, which can be combined and used for body text and headings, and the Shueitai’s design allows for a calm and relaxed impression with good design consistency.
DNP has been developing and maintaining the Shueitai type family since the company started (as Shueisha) more than a century ago. Shueitai has been a consistently popular family among publishers and readers alike, thanks to its readability and graceful line drawing. The wide variety of styles packed into the Shueitai collection, including Mincho, Gothic, and Maru Gothic, makes it a fantastic selection for designers working across a wide range of projects.
