- Basel Neue has ligatures strategically chosen. Herbert S. Zim, in the book "Codes and secret writing", elected the most common letter pairs of English, that in the Basel Neue became optional ligatures.
- It's a fun typeface. Basel Neue has a set of emoticons and fun symbols that can be activated by discretionary ligatures. Type ":-)" and a smileface appears. Type "8-)" and a smiley with glasses appears. Or ""... and a graceful corresponding symbol will appear.
- Basel Neue contains lots of useful glyphs (that most fonts ignore!) and features. All versions have 12 recycling symbols, 7 to different types of plastic, and over 30 currency symbols. You can type "", "" and "" and a telephone, star and heart appears. It also has fractions, old style-, lining-, tabular numbers and other OpenType features.
- It has an organized and large character set. The fonts have extended character set to support CE, Baltic, Turkish as well as Western European languages. If you work with languages like Catalan, German, Croatian, Romanian, Dutch, Turkish, for example, the font will use the correct ligatures or characters used in these languages.
- It's rigorously tested. Basel Neue is available in OpenType PS & TT flavors and each version undergoes a battery of tests, with a systematic review of nodes, curves, spacing and internal data. This eliminates the possibility of errors in the font.
