+      B612 is the result of a research project initiated by Airbus. The font
+      was designed by Nicolas Chauveau and Thomas Paillot (intactile DESIGN) with the
+      support of Jean‑Luc Vinot (ENAC). Prior research by Jean‑Luc Vinot (DGAC/DSNA)
+      and Sylvie Athènes (Université de Toulouse III). The challenge for the
+      "Aeronautical Font" was to improve the display of information on the cockpit
+      screens, in particular in terms of legibility and comfort of reading, and to
+      optimize the overall homogeneity of the cockpit.
+
+      Intactile DESIGN was hired to work on the design of eight typographic
+      variants of the font. This one, baptized B612 in reference to the
+      imaginary asteroid of the aviator Saint‑Exupéry, benefited from a complete
+      hinting on all the characters.
