<h3>Multiple scripts for multilingual India</h3>
<h4>The award-winning Anek variable font</h4>
<figure>
<img src="Anek_Allscripts_Heights.png" alt="Two rows of five examples each in all 10 Anek fonts.">
<figcaption>The nine scripts have base characters in the center, with vowel signs and conjuncts that come above, below or next to them.</figcaption>
</figure>
<p>The Anek multi-script typeface for 9 Indian languages and Latin was made through a collaboration of 12 type designers working across 8 cities in India.</p>
<p>How did Ek Type win two type design awards (the TDC Certificate of Typographic Excellence and the D&AD Graphite Pencil) for their Anek multi-script typeface?</p>
<p>There were two key factors to their success:</p>
<ol>
<li>Teamwork: The team of 12 collaborated democratically.</li>
<li>Equality: Giving equal value to each of the nine Indian writing systems (scripts) and Latin, while maintaining both common visual features and script-specific characteristics.</li>
</ol>
<h5>Teamwork during lockdown</h5>
<p>Getting 12 people to collaborate while speaking in three languages (English, Hindi, and Marathi) and spread out in eight different Indian cities (Mumbai, Pune, Kalyan, Hinganghat, Baroda, Bengaluru, Bharampur, and Pali) is not an easy task.</p>
<p>Ek Type established a collaboration structure that fostered teamwork, while also giving designers the liberty to be creative.</p>
<p>The team consisted of Maithili Shingre, Yesha Goshar, Kailash Malviya, Aadarsh Rajan, Sulekha Rajkumar, Vaishnavi Murthy, Omkar Bhoir, Mrunmayee Ghaisas, Mahesh Sahu, Sarang Kulkarni, Noopur Datye, and Girish Dalvi.</p>
<p>Ten people focused on one script each, while the other two members worked on font engineering and project management. The designers focused on the script that was most familiar to them.</p>
<p>Via three- to four-hour weekly video calls, team members annotated drawings with emojis, arrows, text, and other marks in their video conference platform. In between calls, the team collaborated online. The team made design decisions based on majority or unanimous votes.</p>
<p>Before the pandemic, most of the team had worked together at the Ek Type studio in Mumbai. Remote work created some unforeseen benefits. “Everyone had the time to venture in different directions, not getting colored by what the others were doing,” said Noopur Datye, co-founder and type designer at Ek Type.</p>

<h3>From Rebranding to Readability with Atkinson Hyperlegible</h3>
<h4>Distinct and modern, the Atkinson Hyperlegible typeface aims to deliver both legibility and readability</h4>
<img src="hero.png">
<p>According to the <a href="https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/blindness-and-visual-impairment#:~:text=Globally%2C%20at%20least%202.2%20billion,uncorrected%20refractive%20errors%20and%20cataracts">World Health Organization</a> (WHO), at least 2.2 billion people have a vision impairment. Major financial burdens can occur when people can’t read fluently or work to their full potential. For example, the WHO estimates that “losses associated with vision impairment from uncorrected myopia and presbyopia alone were estimated to be US$ 244 billion and US$ 25.4 billion, respectively.” Typeface design can help.</p>
<p>When Braille Institute hired <a href="http://helloapplied.com/people#whoweare">Applied Design Works</a> to create a new brand identity and branding strategy to coincide with their 2019 centennial anniversary, the firm looked for a beautiful and functional font specifically designed for improved <a href="https://fonts.google.com/knowledge/glossary/legibility_readability">legibility and readability</a>. Brad Scott and Elliott Scott of Applied Design Works were concerned about typefaces that look a little like old ransom notes, where each letter and number were dramatically different from each other. They wondered if, despite designers’ intentions, these typefaces could actually be more difficult to read for some people. They decided that no existing typeface met their legibility, readability, and branding goals. So they endeavored to create a new typeface called Atkinson Hyperlegible, named after the organization’s founder J. Robert Atkinson.

<h3>Morisawa BIZ Universal Design (UD) Japanese fonts added to Google Fonts and Google Workspace</h3>
<img src="hero.jpg">
<p>As part of our larger effort to make great type accessible in more languages, Google Fonts is pleased to announce that the Japanese type foundry <a href="https://en.morisawa.co.jp/">Morisawa</a> has made 2 <a href="https://fonts.google.com/?query=morisawa&subset=japanese">BIZ Universal Design (UD) font families</a> available on Google Fonts, under the <a href="http://scripts.sil.org/OFL">SIL Open Font License</a>.

<p>“Having these fonts available in Japan allows Google Education to align with the most widely used fonts in education publishing in Japan,” said Stuart Miller, Head of Marketing for Google Education in Asia Pacific (APAC). “This makes it easier for partners to collaborate with Google Education. It also ensures a more consistent, inclusive, delightful experience for the millions of teachers and students that use Google tools.”</p>
<p>Drawing on extensive end-user evaluation, the BIZ UD typefaces were developed using the <a href="https://universaldesign.ie/what-is-universal-design/the-7-principles/the-7-principles.html">principles of universal design</a> (UD) to ensure <a href="https://fonts.google.com/knowledge/glossary/legibility_readability">legibility</a> (the ease of differentiating individual characters) and <a href="https://fonts.google.com/knowledge/glossary/legibility_readability">readability</a> (the ease of reading text overall).

<h3>Reviving a forgotten font: Type detectives give life to Brygada</h3>
<p>Mysterious Polish font matrices spark interest in a lost and forgotten pre-World War II typeface</p>
<figure>

<figcaption>Brygada in Latin, Cyrillic, Greek scripts and numbers</figcaption>
</figure>
<p>A man uncovers an unused font in dusty piles of metal plates and blocks. He is intrigued by the mysterious letters “K” and “R” with curly legs, and a handwritten note on old brown paper that says “Brygada.” He starts an archeological quest to research the origins of the font–and inspires a team to revive the font with 21st century software and a microscopic camera.</p>
<p>Is this the plot line for a new “Indiana Jones” movie or the origin story for a remade digitized font?</p>
<p>It’s the latter. It’s the story of Brygada, a lost and forgotten 20th century typeface remade for the 21st century.</p>
<figure>
<img src="handwritten_note.png" alt="97 matrices of 28 point size Brygada typeface written on brown paper">

</figure>
<p>It was the summer of 2015 and Mr. Janusz Tryzno was the owner of the Book Art Museum of Łódź located in a 19th century villa in Łódź (pronounced “Woodge”), Poland. He dug through piles of font matrices (metal blocks with letter shapes used to cast letters) and metal plates wrapped in brown paper from the Polish National Type Foundry. After uncovering the Brygada matrices, he asked museum volunteers, Przemysław Hoffer and Borys Kosmynka, to examine the matrices to see if they could bring the font back to life.</p>

<p>Jasper de Waard, born in 1996, first came in contact with the beauty of type design when he was 10, and developed his skills as a type and graphic designer ever since. He was born and raised in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, and went to a bilingual high school there, training him to read and write English fluently and have a more international focus. He is currently in his third year, three years before his exam. He hopes to continue his practices in the fields of type and graphic design after he finishes school and release many more typefaces in the future.</p>
<p>His love for the tiny details, balance in proportions and urge for perfection made him into what he is today. However, the great support and feedback from people on several forums can't be denied as a great source of inspiration and evaluation material, giving him a greater understanding of the method behind type design. He is also available for custom type work and identity design.</p>

<h3>Wonky, goofy, playful, elegant and a workhorse: Meet a new breed of “Old Style” typeface</h3>
<p>Fraunces is a variable font that offers a variety of styles for text and display typography.</p>
<p>In 2018, Google Fonts commissioned Flavia Zimbardi and Phaedra Charles of <a href="https://undercase.xyz/">Undercase Type</a> to make a new <a href="https://fonts.google.com/knowledge/glossary/display">display</a> typeface that would demonstrate the power and promise of <a href="https://fonts.google.com/knowledge/glossary/variable_fonts">variable fonts</a> with a sense of humor.</p>
<p>Their solution to this challenge is inspired by the early 20th century <a href="https://fonts.google.com/knowledge/glossary/typeface">typefaces</a> such as <a href="http://fontreviewjournal.com/windsor/">Windsor</a>, Souvenir, and the Cooper Series.</p>
<figure>
<img src="fraunces.png" alt="Rinse & Repeat black text on orange and light beige backgrounds">
<figcaption>Fraunces Black Soft Wonky at 14pt</figcaption>
</figure>
<p>“Fraunces probably leans a little more (pun intended) towards the mannerism in Windsor than any of the others, but they all have some qualities common with each other. Those typefaces were meant to evoke a hand-drawn quality more appropriate for display advertising. The leaning ‘n’ in Windsor is a very distinctive characteristic of this style and is probably the most direct comparison. Fraunces does something unique by creating a design space that incorporates both heavy inky qualities, as well as thinner, more refined and delicate qualities seen in the lighter <a href="https://fonts.google.com/knowledge/glossary/weight">weights</a> of Windsor. The italic pairing for Fraunces is also very distinct and draws influences from Cooper Nouveau, which blends Art Nouveau influences,” said Phaedra Charles.</p>
<p>Using variable font technology gives more flexibility; “Fraunces embraces the new variable font technology with four axes–softness, weight, wonk, and <a href="https://fonts.google.com/knowledge/glossary/optical_sizes">optical size</a>–making its use much more versatile and customizable than what any typeface released in the 1970’s.”</p>

<h3>Clean and clear: making reading easier with Lexend</h3>
<p>A key factor in reading problems might be hiding in plain sight. Learn how changing fonts can change comprehension.</p>
<p>A child struggles to read and understand their homework assignment. An adult re-reads a news article and still doesn’t understand what it’s about. Both readers end up frustrated and feeling like there is something wrong with them. Thankfully there might be a simple answer. Dr. Bonnie Shaver-Troup thinks fonts are part of the problem and the solution to many reading problems.</p>
<p>“We have a global reading crisis and we can change much of it by delivering fonts that are optimized for the visual field and for the individual. The answer is hidden in plain sight. It’s the font,” said Shaver-Troup.</p>
<h4>Change the font, change the outcome</h4>
<p>While working as an educational therapist in Silicon Valley, Shaver-Troup helped students with dyslexia and other reading problems to learn to read. She experimented by changing the spacing between certain letters in their reading assignments, and found that it improved their reading and comprehension. According to Shaver-Troup, the issue wasn’t in her students’ minds, it was with the letterforms they saw on the screen or paper.</p>
<p>“The majority of the reading problems, including dyslexia, are not cognitive or phonological. They are visual or perceptual. Our testing has a built-in design flaw. We use fonts to deliver text for reading that are too tight for efficient or successful visual processing. Then we get poor results, suggesting the reading issue is phonological or cognitive. If we change the font to the tested optimized font fit, then we change the outcome,” she explained.</p>

<h3>Giving African languages more Latin font choices</h3>
<h4>Questrial font provides pan-African Latin support</h4>
<img src="hero.png">
<p>Due to the scarcity of open source <a href="https://fonts.google.com/knowledge/glossary/font">fonts</a> for African languages, Google has released <a href="https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Questrial">Questrial</a>, offering more font choices for digital Africa.</p>
<p>During colonial times, European colonial powers in Africa made their languages (English, Dutch, French, Portuguese, Spanish, and more) the official languages in government, educational, cultural, and other state institutions in African countries. In post-colonial times, African countries aiming to maintain their native (non-colonial) languages face a major roadblock: not enough fonts with Pan-African support that provide all of the letters and <a href="https://fonts.google.com/knowledge/glossary/diacritic_accent_marks">diacritics (or accent) marks</a> for the proper spelling of their languages.</p>
<p>Proper spelling isn’t just for school tests and national spelling competitions, it’s vital for communication and for language survival. Educational institutions and users need fonts that can show the orthography (proper spelling) for each language, so that students can learn how to write correctly. Otherwise, if pupils see the same word written in different ways, with different kinds of punctuation marks replacing diacritics, they may never learn the proper way to spell. Without standard spelling, students could confuse words that may look similar but have different meanings.</p>
<p>These are some examples of words in African languages with similar spellings and different meanings:</p>
<ul>
<li>fɔ (to say) and fo (to greet) in Bambara</li>
<li>motó (head) and mɔ́tɔ (fire) in Lingala</li>
<li>ọ̀tá (enemy) and ota (bullet) in Yoruba</li>
</ul>

<h3>Google’s most popular font gets customizable with the launch of Roboto Flex</h3>
<img src="hero.jpg">
<p>Get it on <a href="https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Roboto+Flex">Google Fonts</a>.</p>
<p>There’s no perfect typeface that works for every size, every device, every application, every style, and every mood. But as the default for Android, with over 2.5 billion active users spanning over 190 countries, <a href="https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Roboto">Roboto</a> needs to be as flexible as possible.</p>
<p>Roboto is Google Fonts’ most popular download (you’re reading this blog post in Roboto).

The Roboto <a href="https://fonts.google.com/knowledge/glossary/superfamily">superfamily</a> has grown from the initial <a href="https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Roboto">sans</a> and <a href="https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Roboto+Condensed">condensed</a> to span <a href="https://fonts.google.com/?query=roboto">Roboto Slab, Roboto Mono,</a> and—most recently—<a href="https://material.io/blog/roboto-serif">Roboto Serif</a>.</p>
<p>Now there’s another Roboto joining the lineup: Introducing Roboto Flex—a major upgrade to Roboto and Google Fonts’ biggest project to date. With a huge range of <a href="https://fonts.google.com/knowledge/glossary/weight">weights</a> and <a href="https://fonts.google.com/knowledge/glossary/width">widths</a> across <a href="https://fonts.google.com/knowledge/glossary/optical_sizes">optical sizes</a>, plus additional capabilities for fine-tuning, Roboto Flex was designed by <a href="http://fontbureau.typenetwork.com/">Font Bureau</a> to be super scalable, adaptable, customizable, and optimizable.</p>

<h3>Say hello to Roboto Serif</h3>
<h4>The newest member of the Roboto superfamily is designed to make reading more comfortable at any size, in any format.</h4>
<img src="hero.png">

<p>It's been almost 20 years since the introduction of Matthew Carter’s Georgia—one of the first <a href="https://fonts.google.com/knowledge/glossary/serif">serif typefaces</a> designed to make reading easier on the low-resolution screens of the time. That year (1993), Americans with Internet access spent <a href="https://slate.com/technology/2009/02/the-unrecognizable-internet-of-1996.html#:~:text=In%201996%2C%20Americans%20with%20Internet,online%2C%20according%20to%20Nielsen.)">fewer than 30 minutes</a> a month surfing the Web. Now we spend almost <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/johnkoetsier/2020/09/26/global-online-content-consumption-doubled-in-2020/?sh=677258762fde">seven hours a day</a>.</p>
<p>Thankfully, reading on-screen has gotten a lot more comfortable since the 90’s. For one thing, you can pick up your device and move over to the sofa. <a href="https://fonts.google.com/knowledge/glossary/letterform">Letterforms</a> are also crisper, smoother, and more legible on today’s screens/devices—and they render more quickly. But another huge (though perhaps less obvious) factor in all of this is the advancement of font technology. Georgia was one of the first eleven “Core Fonts for the Web” that paved the way for <a href="https://fonts.google.com/knowledge/glossary/open_type">OpenType</a> and, eventually, <a href="https://fonts.google.com/knowledge/glossary/variable_fonts">variable fonts</a>. Today, a well-designed, OpenType serif can be just as readable on-screen as it is in print. And a well-designed variable serif can give readers additional benefits on-screen. Enter: <a href="https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Roboto">Roboto Serif</a>.</p>

<p>As designers of type, we most often find ourselves composing a monospaced (sometimes called a fixed-width, fixed-pitch, or non-proportional) typeface in the service of building out the styles of an accompanying proportional type family or type system. It’s about adapting the proportional type’s forms and rules, and discovering how those letterforms behave within fixed limits to give the face new texture and capability. But what if that constraint was embraced? What if we set out to create a monospaced typeface that wasn’t simply an extension, but rather something unto itself?</p>

<h3>Spectral: A New Screen-First Typeface</h3>
<h4>Production Type introduces their latest commission for Google Fonts</h4>
<p>Spectral is a new and versatile serif face available in seven weights of roman and italic, with small caps. Intended primarily for text-rich, screen-first environments and long-form reading, <a href="https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Spectral">Spectral</a> is brought to you by Production Type, commissioned by Google Fonts, and free to use across Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides, or in any of your projects.</p>
<h4>Screen-first typefaces</h4>
<p>The history of early digital typefaces, though still fairly recent, has already proven that typeface design doesn’t need to reinvent itself because of technical constraints. One only has to look back over the last 20 years to discover work that forged a viable path. Many early digital types (<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trinit%C3%A9_(typeface)">Trinité</a>, <a href="http://typographica.org/typeface-reviews/demos-next/">Demos</a>, <a href="https://books.google.com/books?id=wdYmvQD5C8IC&pg=PT99#v=onepage&q&f=false">Colorado</a>, and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgia_(typeface)">Georgia</a> for example) set a powerful example by being unobtrusive, transparent designs that rely on commonly accepted shapes, while remaining innovative and fit-for-purpose. These giants, on whose shoulders Spectral aspires to stand, form a solid set of accomplished, serious designs.</p>

<h3>Modern Tiro Indic collection for classical South Asian texts</h3>
<h4>The beauty and challenges of bridging the old and the new</h4>
<p>Two type designers separated by an eight-hour time difference, an ocean, and pandemic travel bans collaborated over video calls and email to make a cohesive set of <a href="https://fonts.google.com/knowledge/glossary/font">fonts</a> in 8 South Asian languages. In 2012, Harvard University Press commissioned Fiona Ross and John Hudson, through <a href="https://www.tiro.com/contact.html">Tiro Typeworks</a>, to design typefaces for the <a href="https://www.murtylibrary.com/">Murty Classical Library of India</a> book series. The publisher needed to reprint ancient Indian literary, historical, and religious texts, including Vedic and early Sanskrit works. Since these old texts had been printed using traditional <a href="https://fonts.google.com/knowledge/glossary/letterform">letterforms</a> and early Indian <a href="https://fonts.google.com/knowledge/glossary/typography">typography</a> techniques, the new fonts needed to retain some of the traditional style of the old texts, yet be clear and legible in modern print and digital media.</p>
<p>In 2019 Google Fonts approached Tiro to make an extended and updated version of the Murty Fonts to be released as open source fonts in the Tiro Indic collection, offering users traditional text styles suitable for a variety of uses.</p>

<h3>Say Hello to our big new Japanese collection with Zen Fonts: Learn about the complex beauty of Japanese fonts</h3>
<p>In 2019, Google Fonts started an ambitious project to expand its font library with a variety of typeface designs for Japanese. At that point Google Fonts had fewer than 10 Japanese families, most of which were basic Mincho (serif) and gothic (sans) designs. Since then the collection of Japanese fonts within the library has grown, now with <a href="https://fonts.google.com/?subset=japanese">38 font families</a> from 18 designers, in a variety of styles – from formal text types to fun display fonts. All these Japanese fonts are now live on Google Fonts for anyone to test out and use in any project.</p>
<img src="hero.png">
<h4>The Zen Fonts collection is the largest set of Japanese fonts on Google Fonts</h4>
<p>As part of this larger effort to expand Japanese offerings, Google Fonts collaborated with type designer Yoshimichi Ohira to open his prestigious collection of Zen Fonts typefaces to the public.
