Where it works

Didact Gothic is also a free alternative to…

Century Gothic → The closest free match on Google Fonts — a round geometric sans built on schoolbook letterforms, with the same single-storey 'a' that gives Century Gothic its signature look. Its one drawback is a single weight, so pair it with something else for bold headings.
