Pre-release.

The pre-release currently only includes OpenType/CFF2 variable font configurations.

For usage with Microsoft Office series software, please visit MSOffice-RHR for a shorter name version to prevent bugs in software.

OpenType/CFF2 variable font (theoretically) works with Windows 10 1803+, macOS 10.15+, Linux with FreeType 2.8+. However, latest OS releases are always recommended because early releases may have critical bugs like source-han-sans#290 with this format.

• OTC: pack 5 language-specific OTFs to a single OTC file, recommended for latest OS.
• OTF: language-specific OTFs for developers and Windows 10 1809 users.
• Subset OTF (CN/TW/HK/JP/KR): region-specific subset OTFs, following Source Han Sans notations.

Although there is package.json, this project is not an NPM package. package.json is used for quick dependency installation.

Resource Han Rounded can be built on Linux or WSL (2).

Note: GNU userland is assumed in makefile. macOS is not tested.
