Quote from: kphoger on June 11, 2025, 12:45:01 PMNational Boards ► General Highway Talk ► FHWA Series Gwould this make I-11 and US-11 shields look better?

There actually was such a thing—sort of. The pre-1948 square fonts could have course be much more easily widened than the round fonts. There was never a federal specification for Series G, but there were indeed a few signs here and there which used a font wider than Series F by the same amount Series F is wider than Series E.

It probably wouldn't have helped with US 11 signs, though, since the 1s don't really change that much from series to series. (And the best thing one can do with an I-11 sign is space the digits further apart than the default kerning table specifies.)
