Supplementary fonts (Proxima Nova Alt and Proxima Nova ScOsf) are included for use with programs (such as Flash and Microsoft Word) that do not yet support all OpenType features. All characters, including the small caps, old style figures, and alternate characters are included in the basic Proxima Nova fonts.

The result is a hybrid combining humanistic proportions with a somewhat geometric appearance.
Stylistically, Proxima Nova straddles the gap between typefaces like Futura and Akzidenz Grotesk. Each width consists of 14 fonts-seven weights with matching italics. There are three widths: Proxima Nova, Proxima Nova Condensed, and Proxima Nova Extra Condensed. The original six fonts (three weights with italics) have been expanded to 42 full-featured OpenType fonts. The Proxima Nova family is a complete reworking of Proxima Sans (1994).
