Any tips for getting the most out of Montegar?

Yes don’t overdo the alternates or ligatures. They’re there to enhance, not overwhelm. Use them sparingly in logos or key headlines. For body text or longer copy, stick to the standard characters. Pair Montegar with a clean sans-serif (like Helvetica Neue or Avenir Next) to let it breathe and stand out.

Also, play with scale. Montegar looks stunning when blown up large think window displays, event banners, or social media headers. But it also holds its own at medium sizes, like product labels or menu cards. Just avoid going too small; those fine serifs need room to show off.
