What it does

Font Club Belgica publishes FC MAD, FC Nib, FC Crimp, FC Pep and other type families. It also offers glyph tailoring, custom typefaces and logo adjustments, with retail licences sold for a one-time fee.

FC MAD Sans builds on the line-based lettering used in CAD drawings. Its open and filled forms provide two different textures across weights and italics. The Standard version contains the core design; Professional adds OpenType features and stylistic alternatives. Compare the alternate a and g, figure styles and slashed zero in the specimen when choosing the version.

The foundry’s tailoring service can modify selected glyphs or add a client logo to the character set. That is a more focused request than commissioning a whole new family. Bespoke fonts and adjustments to an existing logo are separate services.

Select the required licence and usage parameters before completing payment through PayPro Global. The FAQ describes one-time fees and an emailed ZIP after successful payment. Individual desktop styles are supplied as OTF, variable fonts as TTF, and webfonts as WOFF and WOFF2. Upgrades are arranged by contacting the foundry; moving from one weight to a full family costs the difference.

Trial files are available for evaluation and client presentations through the Trial License option. They do not permit public or commercial finished work.
