QOD typeface for car licence plates
The QOD typeface, derived from geometrically constructed sans-serifs, features uniform stroke thickness and equally spaced characters. License plate typefaces must have easily distinguishable characters, so QOD letters are more angular, and numbers are rounded. Easily confused characters like B, S, and 8 or O, D, and 0 are emphasized for distinctiveness. Selective use of serifs (C, G, I, J, L, S, T, 1, 7) enhances uniqueness. QOD has three styles (A, B, C), each designed for different plate sizes. The typeface was created at the Department of Visual Communication, AFAD in Bratislava.
