It's clear at this point that I made a mistake choosing Tablet Gothic Wide Light for our display typeface.

In our software, it's only legible at very large sizes that are not befitting of an enterprise app.

In our marketing, it looks too lightweight except in very large headlines. It lacks versatility.

Ideally, our display typeface should perform well at a variety of sizes.

Ideas

So far I've limited my search to Typekit fonts.
