CMC 7

by Harold's Fonts · Website

CMC 7 is a novelty display face from Harold's Fonts based on the CMC-7 magnetic ink character recognition system used on bank checks. Each character is built from vertical striped lines, mimicking the look of machine-readable printing where legibility by scanners matters more than by human eyes. It's a niche pick for designs that need a technical, coded aesthetic, working best in headlines or short text where the barcode-like texture can read as intentionally futuristic rather than obscure.
