About Anuphan

Anuphan is a sans serif family for the Thai and Latin scripts. The official description presents it as IBM Plex Thai without the loops; Mint Tantisuwanna, who designs type at Cadson Demak, developed it as a project for study and self-improvement. The same notes add that it does not modify IBM Plex Sans Thai: the Thai characters were drawn anew, taking only the Latin of IBM Plex Sans as their basis. The Latin letters in the specimen are upright and evenly weighted, with flat stroke endings and a double-storey a. Anuphan is a variable font with a weight axis from 100 to 700 and seven named weights, Thin to Bold; there are no italics. It holds 749 glyphs across Thai, Latin, Latin Extended and Vietnamese. The copyright notice names The Anuphan Project Authors, and the license is the SIL Open Font License 1.1.

Where Anuphan works

Thai product interfaces

Loopless Thai letters in seven weights give menus, buttons and settings screens a compact, modern texture.

Thai headlines and banners

Thin 100 and Bold 700 mark the ends of the range for large titles.

Bilingual dashboards and documentation

Thai was drawn from the same Latin model, so mixed Thai and English lines share proportions.

Design systems built on IBM Plex

Teams already using IBM Plex Sans for Latin text can add Anuphan for a loopless Thai voice.

Fine weight tuning

The variable axis allows any weight between 100 and 700, for example a slightly heavier text weight on dark backgrounds.
