## About Sniglet

Sniglet is a display typeface with fully rounded stroke ends. In the specimen the Regular looks drawn with a felt marker of constant width: the a and g are single-storey, bowls are close to circles and the Q is crossed by a short curved tail. The ExtraBold is a different animal. Its strokes swell until the counters shrink to small holes and the letters turn into soft, inflated blobs that almost touch. The official description is one line long and calls it a rounded face for headlines. The family has two upright styles, Regular 400 and ExtraBold 800, with nothing in between, and 244 glyphs covering basic Latin. Haley Fiege designed it; the copyright notice also names Brenda Gallo and Pablo Impallari, who appear with Fiege in the font's manufacturer field. The license is the SIL Open Font License 1.1.

## Where it works

- **Children's apps and games**: Round caps and single-storey letters resemble early-reader letterforms, and ExtraBold makes big tappable titles.
- **Sweet and snack packaging**: The inflated ExtraBold reads as soft and edible on a wrapper or label.
- **Stickers and badges**: A word or two in ExtraBold holds together as one chunky shape that survives being cut out.
- **Friendly interface headings**: Regular gives a help page or onboarding screen a casual heading without the heaviness of ExtraBold.

## Things to know

- **Two weights far apart**: Regular 400 and ExtraBold 800 are the only styles, and they differ strongly in character as well as thickness.
- **No italics**: Both styles are upright.
- **Basic Latin coverage**: The 244 glyphs include the letters needed for English, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Dutch and the Nordic languages. The extended Latin set is incomplete.
