Noto

Noto fonts

Noto's goal is providing a beautiful reading experience for everyone and for all languages. With visual harmony when multiple languages share a page. With multiple styles and weights, and Freely available to all.

Currently, Noto covers all major languages of the world and many others, including European, African, Middle Eastern, Indic, South and Southeast Asian, Central Asian, American, and East Asian languages. Several minority and historical languages are also supported.

Support for Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, and Korean was first added in July 2014.

You can preview and download the Noto fonts at http://google.com/get/noto.

Noto fonts are open source. Noto Sans CJK is published under the SIL Open Font License, Version 1.1. All other Noto fonts are published under the Apache License, Version 2.0.

Use unhinted fonts for Android and Mac (Android and Mac ignore hinting information embedded in fonts). Use hinted fonts for other platforms.

Development

Tools used for testing fonts are in nototools.

Noto was moved from Google Code to github in June 2015. A historical copy of the old monolithic repo is at noto-monolithic
