01

A2 documents the Community project

A2-TYPE’s custom-work portfolio identifies Community as a comprehensive type program created for LinkedIn from its Regular family. The foundry describes a four-year project commissioned by Wolff Olins in San Francisco during 2018–2021. It names Sans and Slab styles, including a set engineered specifically for web use. This creator account identifies the commissioned family rather than a font inferred from a screenshot.

02

The project had an international reading brief

A2 lists extended Latin, Cyrillic, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Thai and Devanagari support, and commercial licensing availability. Inspect the exact package for the required scripts. These statements concern the type program; they do not establish that typing in Community reproduces the LinkedIn logo.

03

Write a professional profile sample before choosing a font

For an independent professional-directory design, include a long name, role, organization, location and a paragraph of experience. Make the name easy to find without giving the job title less space than it needs. A text-heavy profile should retain a stable hierarchy when a role wraps across two lines. Keep secondary metadata subdued through spacing and size rather than making it too faint to read.

04

Compare real content and supported scripts

Source Sans 3, Inter and Source Serif 4 are independent specimens, not Community downloads. Compare a profile heading, a biography and a compact contact label. For a multilingual directory, test the actual translated content using suitable script coverage and allow names their natural length. Preserve the chosen family and style names when handing the design to someone who will maintain the directory.

GOOD QUESTIONS

Your questions, answered.

Who documents Community for LinkedIn?

A2-TYPE’s original custom portfolio names Community and describes its Sans and Slab program for LinkedIn.

Does this also identify the LinkedIn logo font?

No. The cited Community account concerns a font program. A logo-specific identification is a separate question.
