1 | Quicksand Variable Font |
| 2 | ======================= | |
| 3 | ||
| 4 | This download contains Quicksand as both a variable font and static fonts. | |
| 5 | ||
| 6 | Quicksand is a variable font with this axis: | |
| 7 | wght | |
| 8 | ||
| 9 | This means all the styles are contained in a single file: | |
| 10 | Quicksand-VariableFont_wght.ttf | |
| 11 | ||
| 12 | If your app fully supports variable fonts, you can now pick intermediate styles | |
| 13 | that aren’t available as static fonts. Not all apps support variable fonts, and | |
| 14 | in those cases you can use the static font files for Quicksand: | |
| 15 | static/Quicksand-Light.ttf | |
| 16 | static/Quicksand-Regular.ttf | |
| 17 | static/Quicksand-Medium.ttf | |
| 18 | static/Quicksand-SemiBold.ttf | |
| 19 | static/Quicksand-Bold.ttf | |
| 20 | ||
| 21 | Get started | |
| 22 | ----------- | |
| 23 | ||
| 24 | 1. Install the font files you want to use | |
| 25 | ||
| 26 | 2. Use your app's font picker to view the font family and all the | |
| 27 | available styles | |
