Source Serif Pro v 2.000

GWF’s version of Source Serif has not been updated since 2014. In the meantime, it has gained more weights & and broader language support. Find the latest files (ttf & much more) here:

Thanks @frankrolf,

I've been working on it this week. Hopefully, I'll send off asap.

@frankrolf Awesome quality, I'm super happy and impressed by this.

@davelab6 only thing I can see which is a little off is the copyright string. However, the details are in there, no ascii chars, url reference, and proper formatting of RFN. Can I push this without amending this?

@davelab6 @frankrolf On further inspection, the ofl and copyright string match the previous version exactly, https://github.com/google/fonts/blob/master/ofl/sourceserifpro/OFL.txt#L1. No change needed.

It appears the vertical metrics have changed a little since our previously hosted version, v1.000.

OS X Safari:

Win7 Chrome:

I don't have a problem with it in this instance. I'd only be concerned if it produced clipping in Windows platforms, which is doesn't.

I think this metrics (and weight) shift is fine

Thanks, all!
The shift in vertical metrics was necessary for Vietnamese – and to avoid clipping of the latter on Windows.

About the weight change: Quite early in the project, it was decided that the three styles were too close in weight, so I increased the gamut, only keeping the Regular style where it was. As a result, Semibold and Bold got heavier. See also https://github.com/adobe-fonts/source-serif-pro/releases/tag/1.017R or https://blog.typekit.com/2014/12/11/source-serif-update-three-new-weights/

I don’t know why this change never made it on GWF, the process was different back in the day – glad to see it simplified!

I noticed that all Roman styles of Source Serif are now available at https://github.com/google/fonts/tree/master/ofl/sourceserifpro, however not at https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Source+Serif+Pro . What needs to be done to update the browse UI?
