Ambivium

Ambivium is a derivation of Caroline Hadilaksono's beautiful Junction font, the first Open Source font published by the League of Moveable Type.

Ambivium too is Open Source and its sources can be downloaded from its own github page.

Ambivium is developed with FontForge and its sources are in the FontForge `.sfd` format. It is published under the SIL OFL license and can be freely downloaded and distributed. It is also used as default font of this very web site!

“Ambivium” is a (not very common) Latin word roughly equivalent to “junction”, at least in its meaning of crossroad.

In addition to original Junction features, Ambivium includes:

All glyphs in the light, regular and bold weigths have been ‘cleaned-up’, by:

adding missing extrema,

correcting self-intersecting paths,

rounding non-integral point coordinates.

Text (‘old-style’) numerals of the standard Junction fonts have been restored into the web fonts and made the default everywhere.

Small caps have been added to the regular weight.

Planned development of Ambivium includes:

More Latin glyphs.

An anchor system, as Junction lacks one.

Cyrillic! (for a project involving Mongolian writing and its usage of the Cyrillic alphabet).

Italic?

If you have a github account, are familiar with FontForge e would like to help, the development of this typeface follows the usual git/github cycle: fork, branch, code, push, submit a Pull Request. To know more, head to the Ambivium github repository;

Of course, Thanks you!.
