Print Gyrug 6 is a very bold, very narrow, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'AZ New Rough' by Artist of Design, 'Olympic' by Graphicxell, 'PG Gothique' by Paulo Goode, and 'Hype vol 2' and 'Hype vol 3' by Positype (names referenced only for comparison).

A chunky, condensed display face with thick, low-contrast strokes and softly rounded corners. The letterforms are tall and tightly proportioned, with a slightly uneven, hand-drawn edge that adds texture while keeping a consistent overall rhythm. Counters are compact and simplified, terminals tend to be blunt, and curved letters lean toward flattened ovals rather than perfect circles. Numerals follow the same narrow, heavy construction for a cohesive, poster-ready silhouette.
Best suited for headlines and short bursts of text where impact matters more than fine detail, such as posters, packaging, labels, and promotional graphics. It also works well for playful branding elements, stickers, and titles in youth-oriented or retro-inspired designs.
The overall tone is bold and humorous, with an informal, hand-made feel that reads as retro and cartoon-adjacent. Its compressed heft creates a loud, attention-grabbing voice suited to energetic, non-serious messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch in a compact width, combining a heavy, simplified construction with hand-drawn imperfections to feel approachable and fun rather than rigidly geometric.
The texture and minor irregularities are subtle enough to stay legible at larger sizes, but the tight counters and dense weight can close up in smaller settings or on busy backgrounds. The narrow proportions help long headlines fit while maintaining strong impact.
