## About Manrope

Manrope is an open-source sans serif family designed by Mikhail Sharanda in 2018. A year later Mirko Velimirovic worked with him to turn it into a variable font, and the family now ships as one file with a weight axis from 200 to 800. Seven weights are named, ExtraLight to ExtraBold. In the specimen the round letters are close to circles, the terminals are cut flat, the g is single-storey while the a keeps two storeys, and the braces and parentheses are tall and narrow. The figures are wide and open. Manrope has no italic styles. Its 740 glyphs cover Latin, Latin Extended, Cyrillic, Greek and Vietnamese, which makes it usable for Russian and Greek interfaces as well as Western European ones. The license is the SIL Open Font License 1.1.

## Where it works

- **Product interfaces**: Open, wide figures and flat terminals keep labels, prices and counters clear in buttons and tables.
- **Landing pages**: ExtraBold 800 for the headline and Regular for the text come from one 167 KB variable file.
- **Interfaces in Russian or Greek**: Cyrillic and Greek sit beside the Latin, so a localised screen keeps the same look.
- **Startup and tech branding**: Near-circular bowls and the single-storey g give a wordmark a clean, current outline.

## Things to know

- **No italics**: Manrope has upright styles only. A browser asked for italic will slant the upright artificially.
- **Lightest weight is the default**: The variable file opens at 200, so a weight should be set explicitly in CSS or in the design tool.
- **Range ends at ExtraBold**: The weight axis runs from 200 to 800; there is no Thin and no Black.
