Variable Fonts (beta)

​A contemporary fat-face with variations for use in a wide range of sizes. Offered with discounted pricing while it’s still a work in progress.

​A variable color font version of the stony Rocher typeface. This version provides independently variable color effects in a single font file (see the article about making the font for details). The download options include a tool for generating versions with customized color palettes. (If the sample is black and/or doesn’t change with the sliders, your browser doesn’t fully support variable color fonts yet.)

​An unusual sans with twisted strokes. In the heavier weights, the pinched stems and contrast become particularly exaggerated. The variable font is included when licensing a full package of all static styles.

​A sans typeface designed for small to medium sizes in digital user interfaces. It is in a pre-release beta stage, so some issues still exist with the design and production.

​A revival of American Type Founders’ 1895 typeface, Bradley. The original, based on lettering by Will H. Bradley, is usually credited to Hermann Ihlenburg. This digital version’s optical size axis covers the full range of original sizes, as far down as 6 points – rare for digital blackletter typefaces – plus a handful of stylistic alternate glyphs.

​A geometric sans with some quirky design details. Offered with discounted pricing before the final version is released.

​A rounded sans where the weight axis gradually changes different parts of different glyphs. A free trial version with limited character support is available.

​Output is a companion to the Input font series but focuses less on code / programming and more on versatility, readability, and interaction. Stylistic sets of alternate glyphs allow for several different flavors: humanist, tech-y, or grotesque. It is currently offered in a pre-release beta version. The lightest weights are also available as a Output Sans Hairlines Variable with its own unique functionality.

An all-caps titling typeface inspired by the map lettering of MacDonald “Max” Gill (brother of Eric Gill).

​A rigidly geometric sans where all the basic letters (except ‘j’) are the same height.

​A geometric sans designed for display usage.

​A blobby all-caps typeface, offered with discounted pricing while it’s still a work in progress.

​A geometric sans with variations in weight and stroke contrast.

​A tribute to Paul Renner’s Futura typeface. The variable sources are available on GitHub, and can be used to generate variable fonts. Otherwise, complete/usable variable font binaries are “available for a minimum of $10”.

Morphs between designs inspired by different historical styles of the Cyrillic script.

The world’s second variable color font release, and the first to support a standard alphanumeric character set, based on lettering from a 1940s Boy Scouts guide. The promo page includes a tool built by Chris Lewis for generating versions with customized color palettes. (If the sample is black and/or doesn’t change with the sliders, your browser doesn’t fully support variable color fonts yet.)

​A variable version of Roslindale’s Display styles, free for anyone who has licensed the Light and Bold weights via DJR’s Font of the Month Club.

​A variable version of League Mono.

​A variable incarnation of FF Meta, produced by Marianna Paszkowska. It is offered with a free demo license that expires December 31, 2019.

​A multi-script typeface for body text inspired by Tim Holloway’s original Markazi. The Arabic glyphs were designed by Bornā Izadpanāh with direction from Fiona Ross, and the Latin glyphs were designed by Florian Runge.

​A straight-sided sans, inspired by vernacular lettering from the mid-1900s.

​A typeface designed for editorial use with the ability to adjust between serif and sans designs, as well as different weights.

​A rounded sans that maintains consistent widths regardless of changes in weight.

​A psychedelic interpretation of Otto Eckmann’s Eckmann-Schrift, available with discounted pricing as a work-in-progress design. It comes with a bonus DrawBot script for making variable animations.

​The variable version of Sudo, a monospaced typeface for coders.
