Sans Other Amluf 9 is a very bold, narrow, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Myriad' by Adobe, 'Skate' and 'Timeout' by DearType, 'Goodrich' by Hendra Pratama, 'Futura Futuris' by ParaType, and 'Earthboy' by Supfonts (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, compact sans with rounded shoulders, slightly lopsided geometry, and a deliberately irregular rhythm. Strokes stay broadly consistent in thickness, with blunt terminals and occasional wedge-like cuts that give letters a carved, hand-shaped feel. Curves are full and inflated, counters are relatively tight, and the overall silhouette reads as chunky and animated rather than strictly geometric. Spacing and widths vary noticeably across glyphs, reinforcing a bouncy, informal texture in words and lines.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as posters, headlines, product packaging, playful branding, and entertainment or children-oriented graphics. It can also work for logos or labels where a bold, quirky voice is desired and tight spacing helps maintain a compact footprint.
The font projects a humorous, upbeat tone with a mischievous edge—more like cut-paper signage or cartoon titling than neutral UI typography. Its uneven stance and bulbous forms create an energetic, approachable personality that feels casual and expressive.
The design appears intended as an attention-grabbing display sans that prioritizes character and punchy silhouettes over strict uniformity. Its handcrafted irregularities and chunky construction suggest a goal of creating a friendly, comedic tone that stays highly legible at larger sizes.
Uppercase forms are especially bold and blocky, while the lowercase maintains the same stout build with simple, single-story constructions where applicable. Numerals follow the same playful, swollen shapes, with strong silhouettes optimized for impact over precision at smaller sizes.
