Font Strategy
The reference uses Univers LT Std (regular, light, bold) as the primary font family with Roboto Condensed for labels and Arial for chart elements.
- For Latin-only content, use a clean neo-grotesque sans-serif as the primary font (Univers, Helvetica Neue, or Arial)
- For mixed CJK/Latin content, use a single CJK-capable font family consistently across the entire document:
- English + CJK: Noto Sans CJK, Source Han Sans, or PingFang SC for all text
- Preserve the reference's visual character: clean, modern, institutional sans-serif
- Never leave any component (headings, body, tables, captions, headers, footers, cover text) on a default Latin-only font while patching CJK support elsewhere
- Table cells with CJK text must wrap and grow vertically; do not clip or allow overflow
Workflow
- Read the style contract at
references/style_contract.md for complete visual specifications
- Read the structure contract at
references/structure_contract.md for document organization rules
- Gather content from the user (topic, data, charts, analysis)
- Build the document section by section following the structure contract
- Apply the style contract consistently across all elements
