Cinecav X was born from the exacting standards of closed-caption television, then refined for the wider world of design. Built on the same foundation that once met FCC requirements for on-screen readability, it delivers the kind of clarity that keeps text legible against moving images, low-contrast backgrounds, or challenging lighting.
This isn’t a novelty font dressed up to look like captions—it’s the real thing, re-engineered for print, web, and digital interfaces. By removing the specialized symbols and technical encoding of its broadcast-only counterpart, Cinecav X makes the proven precision of caption typography available to any designer. Its clean curves, balanced spacing, and subtle corner softening make long passages effortless to read, while still holding their ground in small sizes or high-motion settings. Whether you’re designing subtitles, wayfinding systems, educational materials, or UI elements that demand instant comprehension, Cinecav X keeps your words sharp and your message unmistakable.
It’s the clarity of television, without the static.
