A light two-column specimen showing the Rules family weights and italics, each as a full alphabet and numeral set.
Summary
The Rules family specimen: two columns of weight samples, uprights on the left and italics on the right, each shown as a full upper/lowercase alphabet and number/symbol set.
Visual description
Warm off-white ground, dense with type. Two columns each list weights top to bottom: Extrabold, Heavy, Bold, Medium, Bold, Medium, with the left column upright and the right column italic ("Extrabold Italic", "Heavy Italic", and so on). Every entry shows the full alphabet in mixed case plus "0123456789!@#$%^&*()", with the lighter weights tinted grey toward the bottom. A small monospace label sits over each sample. Header: "RULES - SPECIMEN" / "TYPOGRAPHY" / "BRAND GUIDELINES".
Key takeaway
Laying uprights and italics in parallel columns at the same weights, so the family's range and the roman/italic pairing read in one view. Fading the lighter weights slightly hints at their on-page presence without extra labeling.
Reuse notes
A complete family-overview page for a type manual. Show real glyph coverage (caps, lowercase, figures, symbols) per weight; the parallel-column upright/italic layout works for any family with a full italic set.
