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 — Novus Variable SAMPLE Wave G (wght axis)” is a deterministic Novus Examples fixture for Conversion 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: TTF · 1,928 bytes. 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.
Code examples
@font-face {
font-family: "Sample";
