<p>Merriweather Sans is a low-contrast semi-condensed sans-serif text typeface
|
|
family designed to be pleasant to read at very small sizes. Merriweather Sans
|
|
is traditional in feeling despite the modern shapes it has adopted for
|
|
screens.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Merriweather Sans is an evolving project and will be updated. As of now
|
|
there are 8 styles: Light, Regular, Bold, and ExtraBold weights in Roman and Italic styles.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>There is also <a
|
|
href="http://www.google.com/fonts/specimen/Merriweather">Merriweather</a>, a serif version which closely harmonizes with the weights and
|
|
styles of this sans-serif family.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Designed by Eben Sorkin, Merriweather Sans features a large x height,
|
|
slightly condensed letterforms, a mild diagonal stress and open forms.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Merriweather Sans is a work in progress and will be improved regularly.
|
|
This means you can request improvements and even fund specific features if if
|
|
they are outside of the current scope of work. For more information and to
|
|

<p>Updated in June 2013 with italic styles.</p>

<b>Updated in January 2016:</b>
|
|
This revision improves on-screen rendering especially at text sizes with ttfautohint hinting.
|
|
Merriweather Sans will work better when installed on desktops.
|
|
Some OpenType features were added and improved.
|
|
Since the vertical and horizontal metrics changed, this may cause some text to reflow in some browsers.
|
|
A second update (v1.006) was made on 1/25 to fix ligatures and other digraphs.
