The M+ OUTLINE FONTS are sans-serif, with proportional and monospaced fonts and many different weights ranging from thin to black. The fonts support following characters sets: C0 controls and basic Latin, Latin-1 Supplement, Latin Extended-A, Japanese Kana, and Japanese Kanji.[1] The fonts are developed using FontForge.[2] The current version contains over 4600 glyphs.

Naming

An M+ outline font is named in a pattern like M+, followed by 1 or 2, and then optionally P, C, M, or MN. The numbers denote glyph design styles, while the letters denote latin glyph configurations.

  • Kana & latin style numbering. Japanese glyphs are full-width. The ideographic (kanji) glyphs are identical between fonts of same weights.
  • ;M+ 1: Consists of contrasting straight lines and hand-drawn curves.
  • ;M+ 2: Incorporates traditional feature of Kana script in the overall modern sans-serif design.
  • Proportional Latin fonts. Available in thin, light, regular, medium, bold, heavy, black weights:
  • ;M+ P (1P/2P): aimed as sophisticated and relaxed design
  • ;M+ C (1C/2C): optimized to be proportioned well in typesetting
  • Fixed half-width Latin fonts. Available in thin, light, regular, medium, bold weights:
  • ;M+ M (1M/2M): created to emphasize the balance of natural letterform and high legibility
  • ;M+ MN Type-1 (1MN): high visibility font designed for programming use

The Latin Type-1 and Type-2 font are designed for use with M+ 1 and M+ 2 fonts respectively. Each Type-2 font has several alternative glyphs different from the respective Type-1 font.

Awards

The font family was selected as one of the "free fonts of the month" in Smashing Magazine,[3] and also selected as "Project of the Month" in SourceForge.JP.[4] It has also been selected as an excellent font among eight fonts for print and screen.[5]
