## About Kdam Thmor Pro

Kdam Thmor Pro is a Khmer display typeface that reworks Kdam Thmor, an earlier design by Sovichet Tep. The Khmer letters follow the look of writing made with a brush on a wall and are described by the makers as edgy and medium in size. The Latin part comes from Gemunu Libre: in the specimen it is a narrow, upright sans with flat-sided curves, squared corners, strokes of one thickness and a W whose middle rises as a single stem. The family is one Regular style and is not a variable font. Its 538 glyphs hold the Khmer script together with the basic Latin set, which covers Western European languages. Sovichet Tep and Longdey Hak are credited, the name table lists Anagata Design as manufacturer, and the license is the SIL Open Font License 1.1.

## Where it works

- **Khmer headlines**: The face was drawn as a display design for headings and large typography in the Khmer script.
- **Bilingual Khmer and English titles**: Khmer letters and the squared Latin share one file, so a title in both scripts keeps a single texture.
- **Shop signs and banners**: A design rooted in brush lettering on walls suits large painted or printed signs.
- **Video and social graphics**: Narrow, flat-sided Latin letters fit a short caption beside Khmer text in a small frame.

## Things to know

- **One style**: Only Regular exists. There is no bold or italic for either script.
- **Latin from another family**: The Latin letters are those of Gemunu Libre, used as the Latin counterpart in this project.
- **Basic Latin only**: Latin coverage ends at the Western European set: Turkish and Central European letters are missing, and French lacks the rare capital Ÿ.
