Hello all.
I am currently working on two typographical projects - 1. an A6 publication that will eventually be reproduced in up to a dozen European languages, and 2. Two large format posters in the same style.
I am looking for suggestions for a clean & clear, complete Opentype font family which has a whole range of glyphs, expert features & added characters so that I can accurately handle alphabets other than just the Roman one when setting the other languages into the document.
Would anyone have any suggestions as to something I could use?

Any of the "Pro" FontFonts can speak most of the european languages. My favorites:
FF Unit

Much appreciated Typographica... you seem to revel in matters of type... how did I know 'twould be your good self helping me out?
I had been looking at DIN but don't seem to have an Opentype version - would I need it to access the other alphabets/glyphs?

i think a few of the fonts on http://www.dstype.com/ have multi-lingual properties. most are open type too from what i have bought.

FF DIN is available in separate language packs. Click the afore-mentioned link. Can you list for me the languages you need?
