Ubuntu Condensed is the narrow cut of the Ubuntu family, 1 Regular style, and it gets noticeably more into a sidebar or a table header than the standard width does. Dalton Maag drew it for Canonical, which funded the family in 2010 and 2011 so the operating system could have lettering of its own.
Hand hinting for desktop and mobile screens was part of that job.
The character set goes past Latin into Greek, with its extended range, and Cyrillic, and there are tabular figures, fractions and subscripts on top. In August 2014 every style moved to version 0.83, which fixed some characters that were not showing correctly in a few OS X applications.
