Since DIN Next Rounded does not include an uppercase ß symbol, we have designed a proprietary uppercase ß that works with the typeface. You can download font files which contain the additional glyph from the Downloads page.
Please note: these font files can only be used if you have a license for DIN Next Rounded LT Pro (Light, Regular und Bold).
The uppercase function (TT) of Adobe InDesign converts ß to SS instead of to the uppercase eszett symbol. This must be deactivated accordingly for the ß.
The following keyboard shortcut can be used on Windows to type the letter. On macOS, the letter must either be manually selected from the font’s glyphs or copied from elsewhere.
General spelling follows the Duden (German) and the Oxford English Dictionary (English).
Product names are generally written in their registered form, with a registered trademark symbol (®). Only in a headline in DIN Next Rounded should the (®) be written in superscript.
In body text, the (®) is only required the first time a product is mentioned.
When using bullet points, the first letter should be capitalized.
A phone number should be written as follows:
A version number should be written as follows:
A one-line address should be written as follows:
A thin space is always used before and after an oblique stroke.
Except for a quote headline, the headline is written without a period at the end. One exception would be a headline that comprises multiple sentences (e.g. “Bauerfeind. The Treatment.”). «Guillemet» quotation marks should be used for quotes.
In body text, units are always written out. Otherwise, the unit symbol can be used, always with a thin space between the number and the unit.
Professional titles should be separated as follows:
Dates should be written as follows:
Times should be written as follows:
For texts in mixed uppercase and lowercase letters, metric kerning is used. For capital letters and numbers, optical kerning is used.
