Source Han Sans is a set of OpenType/CFF Pan-CJK fonts. In addition to functional OpenType fonts, this open source project provides all of the source files that were used to build these OpenType fonts by using the AFDKO makeotf and otf2otc tools.
Note that if you click the Download ZIP button for this project that the download size of the current version is approximately 1.2GB for the master branch, and approximately 1.6GB for the release branch.
You can either download entire releases after clicking one of the two links below, or go to this project's release branch to download individual font resources or ZIP files that include all weights for a particular language or region-specific subset:
For information about the various deployment configurations, and to help decide which fonts to download, please refer to the Configurations section of the official font readme file.
To build the binary font files from source, you need to have installed the Adobe Font Development Kit for OpenType (AFDKO). The AFDKO tools are widely used for font development today, and are part of most font editor applications.
In this repository, all necessary files are in place for building the OpenType/CFF and OpenType/CFF Collection fonts. The COMMANDS.txt file provides the command lines that are used to build the OTFs and OTCs.
