Source Hanser If Design Guide

Source Han Serif was jointly developed by Adobe and Google as a pan-CJK serif typeface to support the primary East Asian languages of Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. As the first serif typeface of its kind, it aims to be readable across various devices and contexts while faithfully preserving the regional conventions of each language. Source Han Serif and its sans-serif sibling form a typeface super-family for a broad range of uses.
