**Work Sans was made in part on the stolen lands of the Wurundjeri and Boon Wurrung people of the Kulin nations. I pay my respect to their elders, past, present and future. Sovereignty has never been ceded.**

## Introduction ##

<!--### [Download (Source, OTF, TTF, WOFF, WOFF2)](https://github.com/weiweihuanghuang/Work-Sans/archive/v1.6.zip)-->
|
||
|
||
A SIL Open Font project titled 'Work Sans'.
|
||
|
||
Work Sans is a 9 weight typeface family based loosely on early Grotesques — i.e. [Stephenson Blake](https://www.flickr.com/photos/stewf/14444337254/), [Miller & Richard](https://archive.org/stream/printingtypespec00millrich#page/226/mode/2up/) and [Bauerschen Giesserei](https://archive.org/stream/hauptprobeingedr00baue#page/109/mode/1up). The core of the fonts are optimised for on-screen medium-sized text usage (14px-48px) – but still can be used in print well. The fonts at the extreme weights are designed more for display use. Overall, features are simplified and optimised for screen resolutions – for example, diacritic marks are larger than how they would be in print.
|
||
|
||
The fonts under **/fonts/static/TTF**, **/fonts/static/WOFF**, **/fonts/static/WOFF2** contain formats for web use. They have been autohinted with ttfautohint.
|
||
|
||
The fonts under **/fonts/variable** are variable TTF fonts.
|
||
|
||
This typeface was funded by Google and is distributed by Google Fonts – many thanks to Dave Crossland for the commission.
|
||
|
||
The project started in June 2014 and the brief was to have a [minimum viable product](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimum_viable_product) (alpha release with 9 weights) by December 2014. Work Sans was first available on Google fonts in July 2015. Work Sans was updated between 2018–2020 with Italics and an expanded character set.
|
||
|
||
Please see [sources/README.md](sources/README.md) for build instructions.

Thanks to Simon Egli for inviting me to work together on Metapolator in the first place.

||
## Building
|
||
|
||
Fonts are built automatically by GitHub Actions - take a look in the "Actions" tab for the latest build.
|
||
|
||
If you particularly want to build fonts manually on your own computer, you will need to install the [`yq` utility](https://github.com/mikefarah/yq). On OS X with Homebrew, type `brew install yq`; on Linux, try `snap install yq`; if all else fails, try the instructions on the linked page.
|
||
|
||
Then:
|
||
|
||
* `make build` will produce font files.
|
||
* `make test` will run [FontBakery](https://github.com/googlefonts/fontbakery)'s quality assurance tests.
|
||
* `make proof` will generate HTML proof files.
