Introducing FF Chartwell
Designed by Travis Kochel, FF Chartwell® is a typeface for creating simple graphs.
Driven by the frustration of creating graphs within design applications and inspired
by typefaces such as F F Beowolf® and FF PicLig™, Travis saw an opportunity to take
advantage of OpenType technology to simplify the process.

Using OpenType ligatures, strings of numbers are automatically transformed into charts.
The data remains in a text box, allowing for easy updates and styling.

It’s really easy to use; you just type a series of numbers like: ”10+13+37+40“, turn on
Discretionary Ligatures and a graph is automatically created. To see the original data all
you need to do is turn off Discretionary Ligatures. All styles support values with
zero or one decimals, but not more.

FF Chartwell was originally released in 2011 under the TK Type foundry.

In 2012, it was added to the FontFont library with the addition of four new chart styles,
the FF Chartwell Polar Series.

The styles of the Coordinate Series (Floating Areas, Floating Bars Vertical, Floating Rings,
Scatter) have been added in 2015, offering a new dimension of data to your graphs.

FF Chartwell User Manual – Page 2

Hints and Tips
Always make sure letter spacing isset to “0”.

Turn on Discretionary Ligatures to transform numbers into charts.

Use InDesign’s Story Editor (Edit > Edit in Story Editor) to edit the values of charts
without having to switch off the OpenType features.

You can change colors if you like: 20+15+25+40

In the Floating styles, the second value must always be greater than the first value
for each value pair.

Please note:
FF Chartwell Pies and FF Chartwell Rings are compatible with Word 2010/2011,
to ensure the color versions works the “+” sign needs to be the same
color as the preceding numbers.

Color versions do not work in Quark XPress.

FF Chartwell Bars and FF Chartwell Bars Vertical are the only fonts that are
currently compatible with iWorks.

FF Chartwell Floating Bars and FF Chartwell Floating Rings are only compatible
with InDesign CS 5, Illustrator CS 6, Photoshop CS 6, and newer versions.
Besides that all FF Chartwell styles are compatible with Adobe Photoshop,
InDesign and Illustrator.
