Google Fonts Repo Wiki

The previous fonts Mercurial repository had a wiki at https://code.google.com/p/googlefontdirectory/wiki which is no longer available. The contents of the wiki are now available here:

Duplicated fonts

There are some similarly named pairs of directories which each have identically named font files. These files are redundant, and exist following the renaming of a family. The initial directories are kept so that people already using that initial name can continue to do so. They are no longer listed in the main www.google.com/fonts directory, but the files exist in this repo since they are still served via the Google Fonts API.

  • ofl/mrbedford and ofl/mrbedfort contain MrBedfort-Regular.ttf
  • ofl/mrssaintdelafield and ofl/misssaintdelafield contain MrsSaintDelafield-Regular.ttf
  • ofl/siamreap and ofl/siemreap contain Siemreap.ttf
  • ofl/terminaldosis and ofl/dosis contain the same files (renamed) and ofl/terminaldosislight contain TerminalDosis-Light.ttf

There are also handcrafted directories with rich samples:
