Fonts

Our three primary typefaces are Le Monde Courrier Std, Source Sans Pro, and La Belle Aurore. These fonts were selected to reflect the nature of the conversations that COUNTRY Financial® has with its client: personal, trustworthy and engaging.

Adding the Fonts to Your Project

A combination of Adobe TypeKit and Google Fonts are used to manage COUNTRY Financial's font kit. Please use the following code in your project's <head> tag to pull in the fonts properly.

<head>
    <!-- TypeKit include -->
    <script src="https://use.typekit.net/bmk6quo.js"></script>
    <script>try{Typekit.load({ async: true });}catch(e){}</script>

    <!-- Google Font include -->  
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=La+Belle+Aurore" media="all">
</head>

Placeholder Fonts

Noto Serif and Noto Sans, both available from Google Fonts can be used for prototyping or when the typekit services are unavailable. Use Noto Serif in place of Le Monde Courrier Std and Noto Sans in place of Source Sans Pro.

More information on how to download and use the Noto fonts can be found here: https://www.google.com/get/noto/

La Belle Aurore is also available from Google Fonts, and can be found here: https://fonts.google.com/specimen/La+Belle+Aurore

To ensure legibility, body text should never be below 9 pixels in height. Text must be able to be magnified by the user to 200%. 

Adobe PDF

For digital download applications, such as Adobe PDF, Noto Serif is used as a replacement for Le Monde Courrier Std.

Microsoft Office

For corporate desktop applications, such as Microsoft Office, Cambria is used as a replacement for Le Monde Courrier Std and Arial as a replacement for Source Sans Pro.

Mobile App Development

Similar to Adobe PDFs, any mobile application that can be downloaded to a user's device should use Noto Serif as a replacement for Le Monde Courrier Std.

Whenever setting type, legibility and readability are primary objectives. This helps the reader navigate and prioritize the information and ensures accurate communication. Messaging should always use the COUNTRY Financial® voice to convey information in a clear, concise manner.

Source Sans Pro

Primarily used for body text and field labels, Source Sans Pro is a perfect complement to Le Monde Courrier. It is modern, legible, functional and straightforward. Fallback fonts for Source Sans Pro are Arial and the system's default sans-serif.

Use the font-stack below when referencing Source Sans Pro in your CSS file:

font-family: "source-sans-pro", Arial, sans-serif;

If you're using Sass, use the $secondary-font variable, as shown below:

font-family: $secondary-font;
