## About Mukta Mahee

Mukta Mahee is a sans serif family for the Gurmukhi and Latin scripts. It belongs to Mukta, Ek Type's open project to build one family across Indian scripts in which no script's features dominate the others, so single-script and mixed-script text share a common colour. The Latin letters in the specimen are humanist in build, with nearly even stroke thickness, open apertures and a slightly narrow set. Seven upright weights run from ExtraLight 200 to ExtraBold 800; there are no italics and no variable font. Each file holds 775 glyphs for Gurmukhi, Latin and Latin Extended. The official notes credit Shuchita Grover and Noopur Datye with Mukta Mahee, and the font's name table adds Girish Dalvi and Yashodeep Gholap, the designers of the original Mukta. It is published under the SIL Open Font License 1.1.

## Where it works

- **Text that mixes Gurmukhi and Latin**: Both scripts were drawn as one family, so a paragraph that switches between them keeps an even weight and height.
- **Apps and websites**: Seven weights from 200 to 800 cover labels, body copy, buttons and headings without a second typeface.
- **News and long reading**: Regular and Medium have even strokes and open letterforms that hold up in columns of text.
- **Signage and forms**: SemiBold, Bold and ExtraBold give clear emphasis for notices and field labels in either script.
- **Projects using other Mukta scripts**: Mukta Mahee shares its Latin and proportions with the wider Mukta family, which also covers Devanagari, Gujarati and Tamil.

## Things to know

- **No italics**: All seven fonts are upright. The family has no italic or oblique cut.
- **Static fonts**: The package contains seven separate TTF files, one per weight; there is no variable font.
- **ExtraLight is stored as 275**: The ExtraLight file is listed as weight 200 but carries an internal weight value of 275.
- **Credits vary by source**: The catalogue lists Ek Type as designer; the notes name Shuchita Grover and Noopur Datye, and the name table lists four people.
