Search files, editable visual templates, and live browser targets from one registry-backed directory. Filtered query views stay crawlable for links but are deliberately noindex; the stable taxonomy pages below remain the canonical search surfaces.

The control case: all three vertical-metric families carry the same numbers, so every platform computes the same 1.0 em default line height. Measure this first, then measure its disagreeing twin — the difference is entirely the metrics. Original typeface, free to use.
The same outlines with all three vertical-metric families deliberately set to different sums — 1000, 1250 and 1400 units. The default line height a renderer produces tells you exactly which family it read, which is the fastest way to explain why one browser or one word processor lays your text out differently from the rest. Original typeface, free to use.
A horizontal Latin face that also carries vhea and vmtx, so vertical-layout code has something small and predictable to run against: every glyph advances 1000 units downward with a 250-unit top side bearing. For testing writing-mode support and metric-table selection without needing a CJK font. Original typeface, free to use.
The uncompressed TrueType (glyf) source for this container set. Every WOFF and WOFF2 file in the group is packed from exactly these bytes, so a compression comparison is measuring the container and nothing else. Original typeface, free to use.

The same CFF (Type 2) face in a WOFF container, 55 percent of the raw sfnt size. Compare it against the other three containers in this group to see how much of a web font's weight is the format and how much is the design. Original typeface, free to use.
The Novus Sans Sample demonstration typeface as WOFF (TrueType-flavoured web font) — one member of a TTF/OTF/WOFF/WOFF2 conversion set built from scratch with fontTools. Original and free to use; a fixture for testing font loading, subsetting, and conversion.
The same TrueType (glyf) face in a WOFF container, 49 percent of the raw sfnt size. Compare it against the other three containers in this group to see how much of a web font's weight is the format and how much is the design. Original typeface, free to use.
The wght variable font wrapped as WOFF — the same fvar/gvar payload in the web container, for testing that a compressor or a CDN pipeline preserves variation data. Original typeface, free to use.
A WOFF file carrying the optional extended-metadata block from the WOFF specification — vendor, credits, description and licence as XML alongside the font, outside the sfnt tables. Most converters drop it silently; this is the file that proves whether yours does. Original typeface, free to use.
The same CFF (Type 2) face in a WOFF2 container, 45 percent of the raw sfnt size. Compare it against the other three containers in this group to see how much of a web font's weight is the format and how much is the design. Original typeface, free to use.
The COLR v0 colour font as WOFF2 — for testing that a web-font pipeline keeps COLR and CPAL rather than stripping them as unknown tables. Original typeface, free to use.
The COLR v1 gradient font as WOFF2 — the shape a site would actually serve. For testing that gradient paint graphs survive web-font compression intact. Original typeface, free to use.
The all-features font as WOFF2, for testing that a web-font build step preserves GSUB, GPOS and GDEF instead of subsetting the layout tables away by default. Original typeface, free to use.
The full face as WOFF2 — the honest baseline for a subsetting benchmark, since comparing a subsetted WOFF2 against an unsubsetted TTF measures Brotli rather than the subsetter. Original typeface, free to use.
The Novus Sans Sample demonstration typeface as WOFF2 (Brotli-compressed web font) — one member of a TTF/OTF/WOFF/WOFF2 conversion set built from scratch with fontTools. Original and free to use; a fixture for testing font loading, subsetting, and conversion.
WOFF2 wrapper of the Novus variable SAMPLE for @font-face tests.
The digits subset in the container a site would serve, so a size comparison against the full WOFF2 measures the subset rather than the compressor. Original typeface, free to use.
The headline subset in the container a site would serve, so a size comparison against the full WOFF2 measures the subset rather than the compressor. Original typeface, free to use.
The latin basic subset in the container a site would serve, so a size comparison against the full WOFF2 measures the subset rather than the compressor. Original typeface, free to use.
The same TrueType (glyf) face in a WOFF2 container, 33 percent of the raw sfnt size. Compare it against the other three containers in this group to see how much of a web font's weight is the format and how much is the design. Original typeface, free to use.
