Resolve Automatically: Font Book deactivates duplicates or moves them to the Trash, depending on the option selected in Font Book settings. In the Font Book app on your Mac, choose File > Resolve Duplicates. You can also check for duplicate fonts manually. You can choose whether to keep both versions, skip font installation, or replace the existing font with the new font. To read the full über-techy specs for this behemoth, check out Adobe’s detailed release notes.Font Book automatically checks for duplicates when you install a font, and shows a message if the font is already installed. TypeKit users of any level also have full access to the individual typefaces for desktop use. Source Han Sans is available as individual language subsets or the full multi-language family downloaded from SourceForge and GitHub. The Source Han Sans typeface comes in seven weights, each tipping the scales at 65,535 glyphs-the maximum number of glyphs supported in the OpenType format.

Imagine being able to create projects in multiple Asian languages, with a cohesive and well-designed look to the type! Adobe’s Source Sans is incorporated for the Latin characters, which tie in nicely with their CJK cousins. This herculean feat of the font world was a collaboration of not only Adobe, but Google-who is releasing their own version of the font-and type foundries in China, Japan, and Korea.įor those with a need to access a wide range of CJK glyphs, especially when regional variations are necessary, this finely-crafted typeface will be invaluable.

The Source Han Sans open source OpenType typeface is a massive pan-CJK font, containing both Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Japanese, and Korean glyphs. Adobe recently released their 101st Adobe Originals typeface and it has been quite the project.
