What it means
At large sizes, unusual proportions, tight details or dramatic stroke contrast can become a strength. Those same features may be distracting or fragile in small text. Display describes an intended use, not a single visual style: a display face can be serif, sans serif, condensed or decorative.
Use it in practice
Try it on a short, meaningful headline. Give it enough space and pair it with a dependable face for longer reading.
Watch out for
A display font should not have to carry every label, caption and paragraph. Test its punctuation and line breaks too.
