Variable font files
Glide ships as a variable font — glide-variable.ttf (roman) and glide-variable-italic.ttf (italic) . Variable fonts let you dial any weight from 100 (Thin) to 950 (Extra Black) on a continuous axis, using a single file instead of separate files per weight. A static glide-mono.ttf monospace is included too.
Variable font support is excellent in all modern desktop applications and browsers.
Web use
For web projects, use the WOFF2 variable font files. Download glide-variable.woff2 and glide-variable-italic.woff2 and place them in your project's public/ directory, then add:
@font-face {
font-family: 'GlideVariable';
src: url('/glide-variable.woff2') format('woff2');
font-weight: 100 950;
font-style: normal;
font-display: swap;
}
@font-face {
font-family: 'GlideVariable';
src: url('/glide-variable-italic.woff2') format('woff2');
font-weight: 100 950;
font-style: italic;
font-display: swap;
}
:root {
font-family: GlideVariable, sans-serif;
