Noto on ChromeOS: No More “Tofu”

Tuesday, October 14, 2014

Google released Noto Sans CJK

Pan-CJK: Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, all in a single font.

Seven weights: Thin, Light, DemiLight, Regular, Medium, Bold, Black. ChromeOS has default support for Regular and Bold, with more coming soon.

Free and open source: Freely available for everyone under the Apache License, v2.0.

Comprehensive character coverage: Covers all the CJK Ideographs in the Unicode Basic Multilingual Plane and a few hundred Ideographs in Unicode Plane 2. Also covered are over twelve thousand Korean Hangul characters with full support for Old Hangul. The total number of glyphs in each font instance is exactly 65,536, the maximum number of glyphs allowed by the OpenType font specification.

Region-appropriate glyph forms: CJK-shared ideographic characters follow region writing conventions to look appropriate to Chinese, Japanese, and Korean users.

Harmony: Noto Sans CJK and all other members of the Noto family are visually compatible with Noto Sans for English, so that text mixing English with another language looks harmonious.

Google Fonts: Early Access @import url(http://fonts.googleapis.com/earlyaccess/notosansjapanese.css); body {

font-family: Arial, 'Noto Sans Japanese', sans-serif;
