WOFF2 — Every OpenType Feature in This Family
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.

Testing contract
Expected to pass- Scenario
- Serve through @font-face and use font-feature-settings for each tag.
- Expected result
- All 20 features still apply after decompression; a build step that dropped layout tables would leave the text unshaped.
What is a .woff2 file?
WOFF2 is the successor to WOFF, using Brotli compression to shrink web fonts substantially further than the original format. It wraps TrueType or OpenType outlines for efficient browser delivery and is the preferred modern web font format. It offers the smallest sizes with broad current-browser support.
How to use this file
Use an example WOFF2 to test Brotli-based font decoding, web-font delivery performance, and @font-face support with fallbacks to WOFF.
How to use this file for testing
“WOFF2 — Every OpenType Feature in This Family” is a deterministic Novus Examples fixture for Conversion testing, Web assets, Editor testing. The same content exported across many formats and linked as a group, so you can convert one and diff against the expected twin.
Documented properties for this file: seed 20260807. Compare results against paired or grouped companions on this page when present (clean↔damaged, searchable↔scanned, or format twins) so scores stay reproducible across runs.
Download the file once, keep the path stable in CI or local scripts, and treat the spec table as the contract: dimensions, seeds, field lists, and roles are intentional. Corrupt or invalid samples are labelled as such — expect parsers to fail loudly rather than silently accept them.
Font fixtures carry a small documented glyph set across the common wrappers. Test font loaders, subsetting, and @font-face; the specimen preview renders the glyphs the face actually maps.

- bdfBDF — 5x7 Bitmap Font (digits)A hand-written 5×7 BDF bitmap font covering the digits, a colon, and space — the classic X11 bitmap-font format, in plain text. A fixture for testing BDF parsers, bitmap-font converters, and retro/embedded rendering.
- otfOTF — CFF (Cubic) OutlinesThe same design in CFF outlines: cubic Type 2 charstrings with no glyf and no loca. The half of the pair that catches code assuming every OpenType font is TrueType-flavoured. Original typeface, free to use.
- otfOTF — Colour Font, COLR Layers over CFF OutlinesCOLR and CPAL over CFF rather than glyf outlines. COLR is outline-agnostic by specification, but plenty of tooling assumes colour fonts are TrueType-flavoured — this is the file that finds out. Original typeface, free to use.
- otfOTF — Variable Font with CFF2 (cubic) OutlinesA variable font whose outlines are CFF2 rather than glyf, so the variation deltas live inside blended charstrings and there is no gvar table at all. The case that breaks tools which assume every variable font is TrueType-flavoured. Original typeface, free to use.
- otfOTF — Web Container Source, CFF (Type 2) OutlinesThe uncompressed CFF (Type 2) 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.
- ttfTTF — Colour Font with Four Named CPAL Palettes (light/dark)A colour font carrying four CPAL palettes with name-table labels and palette-type flags, two of them marked usable with a light or a dark background. For testing palette pickers, the CSS font-palette property, and renderers that only ever read palette zero. Original typeface, free to use.
