## About Mozilla Headline

Mozilla Headline is a sans serif family for titles in which a handful of letters borrow slab serifs. In the specimen the capital I and J, and the lowercase f, i, j, l and r, carry flat horizontal serifs, the capital A has a short flag at its apex, and the zero is slashed, while the remaining letters are plain grotesque shapes with even strokes. Mozilla Headline is a variable font with two axes: weight from 200 to 700 and width from 75 to 125, where 100 is the normal width. Six named instances run from ExtraLight to Bold; there are no italics. The file holds 491 glyphs covering Latin and Latin Extended. The family is credited to Studio DRAMA, and the copyright notice names The Mozilla Headline Project Authors. The license is the SIL Open Font License 1.1.

## Where it works

- **Web page hero titles**: The width axis narrows the type to 75 for a long headline or widens it to 125 for a few large words.
- **Product and campaign branding**: Slab details on I, J, f and r and the flagged A make a short name recognisable in a plain sans setting.
- **Technical and developer content**: A slashed zero keeps 0 apart from the letter O in version numbers and identifiers within titles.
- **Section headers in six weights**: ExtraLight to Bold cover quiet subheads as well as dark main titles.

## Things to know

- **Two axes in one file**: Weight runs from 200 to 700 and width from 75 to 125, with 100 as the default width. Both can be set independently.
- **The file opens at ExtraLight**: The default weight of the variable file is 200, so set the weight explicitly in CSS or in the application.
- **No italics**: Mozilla Headline has upright styles only.
- **Latin only**: The 491 glyphs cover Latin and Latin Extended. Cyrillic and Greek are not included.
