TTF — Subset: Digits
The full face subset to U+0030-U+0039 (digits only) — a numeric-display cut, the shape a dashboard font ends up. Layout features are kept, so lookups whose glyphs were removed are the ones you can watch disappear. Original typeface, free to use.

Testing contract
Expected to pass- Scenario
- Render text outside the subset range and diff the glyph count against the full face.
- Expected result
- The face carries 51 glyphs instead of 157; characters outside U+0030-U+0039 (digits only) render as .notdef rather than silently falling back.
What is a .ttf file?
TTF (TrueType Font) is a scalable outline font format developed by Apple and Microsoft that uses quadratic Bezier curves and includes hinting for sharp rendering at small sizes. It stores glyph outlines, metrics, and character mappings in a single file. It is one of the most widely supported desktop and web font formats.
How to use this file
Use an example TTF to test font parsers, glyph and metric extraction, text-rendering pipelines, and converters that produce web font formats like WOFF.
How to use this file for testing
“TTF — Subset: Digits” is a deterministic Novus Examples fixture for Conversion testing, Performance testing, Web assets. 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.

- ttfTTF — Partially Instanced Variable Font (wdth pinned, wght live)The two-axis font with its width axis pinned to Condensed and its weight axis left live — the shipping shape for a site that wants one width but the whole weight range. For testing that a loader reads the reduced fvar rather than the original axis list. Original typeface, free to use.
