Compatil is the name of a large typeface family designed for interchangeable fonts while maintaining identical document metrics. == History == Development of the Compatil typefaces took place from 1999 to 2001 at Linotype Library GmbH. The name was derived from the word "compatible" and represents an intelligent and modular type system. The projects was led by Bruno Steinert, Managing Director of Linotype GmbH, Bad Homburg. Prof. Olaf Leu and his analysis team at Mainz University of Applied Sciences〔(Linotype Font Collections - Compatil )〕 drew up an extensive range of requirements that Linotype Library’s team of experts incorporated into their new creation, extending and developing the concept as their work progressed. Silja Bilz and Prof. Reinhard Haus, were responsible for project design and concept. Additional designer include Erik Faulhaber. In 2004-12-07, Linotype announced Compatil 6.0, which introduced italic fonts for all families.〔(Linotype expands portfolio of the Compatil Type System - December 7, 2004: Compatil 6.0 sets a new standard in style )〕 The italic fonts have 11 degree lean angle.
