Source Han Sans
Source Han Sans is a sans-serif gothic typeface family created by Adobe and Google. It is also released by Google under the Noto fonts project as Noto Sans CJK. The family includes seven weights, and supports Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Japanese and Korean. It also includes Latin, Greek and Cyrillic characters from the Source Sans family.
The Latin, Greek and Cyrillic characters are taken from the Source Sans Pro family, and adjusted to fit in with Chinese, Japanese and Korean (CJK) text. For example, in the normal weight Latin and Latin-like characters are scaled to 115% of their original size, hence they appear larger than Source Sans Pro at the same point size.
For the Chinese, Japanese and Korean characters, the underlying design was designed by Ryoko Nishizuka from Adobe. Multiple type foundries drew the glyphs for different languages based on the designs: Changzhou Sinotype and Arphic Technology for Chinese, Iwata Corporation for Japanese, and Sandoll Communications for Korean. Ken Lunde of Adobe consolidated the glyphs and created the final font resources, while Google provided funding, testing resources and input.
Source Han Sans has five versions: Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese for Taiwan, Traditional Chinese for Hong Kong, Japanese and Korean. Because of the different conventions and standards in each region, the same character in Unicode may have different shapes in different versions.
The font family includes seven font weights: ExtraLight, Light, Normal, Regular, Medium, Bold, and Heavy. At its release, the fonts contains 65,535 glyphs, the maximum limit for CID-based fonts.
The font currently covers all of the characters in Unified Repertoire and Ordering of the Unicode Standard in version 2.001, but still doesn't cover all of CJK Compatibility Ideographs and extensions of the CJK Unified Ideographs.
The 28-font OTC version of Source Sans Pro became available in version 1.001.
Source Han Sans version 2.000 is a major update of the font family, the major changes include:
