Inter is a geometric neo-grotesque typeface designed primarily for computer screens.
Its tall x-height improves the readability of mixed-case and lowercase text, particularly at smaller sizes.
The family is available as both a variable font and traditional static files, with weights ranging from Thin to Black and matching italics. It also includes a broad selection of OpenType features for typography, interface design, coding, and numerical data.
This is free and open source software.
