Print Tavu 12 is a very bold, narrow, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'MVB Diazo' by MVB (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, rounded display face with hand-drawn contours and subtly irregular stroke edges. Forms are compact and vertically oriented, with soft terminals, swollen bowls, and a lively, slightly uneven rhythm that suggests marker or brush lettering. Counters tend to be small, joins are cushioned rather than sharp, and widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, creating an intentionally imperfect, organic texture in both uppercase and lowercase.

Best suited to short, bold statements where personality is the goal—posters, headlines, playful branding, packaging, kids-oriented materials, and social media graphics. It holds up well at larger sizes where the rounded details and compact counters can remain clear.

The overall tone is warm and approachable, with a comic, kid-friendly energy. Its bouncy silhouettes and soft corners read as casual and expressive rather than precise or technical, making the font feel conversational and fun.

The design appears intended to deliver a bold, handwritten look that feels friendly and accessible, prioritizing character and charm over strict geometric regularity. Its softened shapes and lively inconsistency aim to add an immediate, human tone to display typography.

Uppercase letters are simplified and sturdy, while the lowercase shows more handwritten personality (notably in single-story shapes and rounded shoulders). Numerals match the chunky, rounded construction and maintain the same informal, hand-rendered consistency.
