Robust display font not for text
Display Robust is a display font not intended for text use, and not for the faint at heart. It was designed specifically for display, headline, logotype, branding, and similar applications. It has some characters that blend well together, and you’ll find the straight vertical strokes and 45-degree angles are perfect for modifications as outlines in Illustrator.
