Typeface Family for Print and Web
Monospaced stencil type derived from technical drawing and architectural plan conventions
Plotter Liner Mono Stencil is part of Typotheque's Plotter super-family, designed by Nikola Djurek and released in 2017. The Liner subfamily restricts curve rendering to straight segments rather than round curves, combined with fixed-width proportions and stencil construction. The broader Plotter project draws on the tools and norms of hand-lettered technical drawings and architectural plans, reducing letterforms to elemental components: stems, arms, curves, and diagonals.

Insights
- Plotter Liner constrains all curves to straight segments, distinguishing it from the round-curve Plotter subfamily.
- The full Plotter super-family spans 47 fonts across 12 packages, including Hand and Wave variants alongside Basic, Mono, Stencil, and Display versions.
- Plotter Wave uses smart OpenType substitution to contextually vary letter slope from extreme backslant to extreme right slant within a word.
- OpenType features are intentionally minimal; the primary alternates are limited to variant forms of 'a' and its accented characters.
