How to use Alfa Slab One
Alfa Slab One's large slab serifs turn a short word into a substantial headline. The horizontal serifs give it a different silhouette from the narrow sans-serif faces used in classic meme captions.
Where it works
A bold announcement, a mock news headline or a short poster joke. Use the weight deliberately rather than applying it to every line.
BREAKING NEWS
Try this treatment
Start with a flat fill and no outline. Leave space between lines for the serifs, and compare the word width before positioning it beside a subject.
Before you export
Wide letters and large serifs can crowd a small thumbnail. Shorten the headline before reducing it to an unreadable size.
An alternative to compare
Anton — Anton fits a heavier headline into less horizontal room when Alfa Slab One's serifs make the layout too crowded.
