Roboto Condensed Google Font Download !FREE!
Gaby Barries
Google Fonts collaborates with type designers, foundries and the design community worldwide to create a directory of open source fonts. The fonts are free to use, making beautiful type accessible to anyone for any project.
Yesterday a colleague of mine noticed a big inconsistency between the rendering of the google Roboto Condensed font on our site, when displaying on Firefox and Chrome. On Firefox the font doesn't seem to be the same at all.
Also it seems like somewhere in the wordpress installation, the Roboto Condensed font is being called twice - once imported directly from the theme, once imported by a plugin we're using to customize the menu of the site.
I already tried removing local Roboto font, changing font-weight and font style, playing with font-family name but dev tools still show that the rendered font is Helvetica. Other Google fonts render just fine. What could be an issue?
Roboto has a dual nature. It features a mechanical skeleton and also the forms are largely geometric. At the same time, the font features friendly and open curves. When some grotesks distort their letterforms to force a rigid rhythm, Roboto does not compromise, permitting letters to be settled into their all-natural width. This makes for any more all-natural reading rhythm much more generally discovered in humanist and serif types.
I'm having issues with Roboto Condenses. Everytime I open a document that uses Roboto Condensed it says the font is inactive. However, Creative Cloud shows font is active. And when I try to reactivate it, it takes several tries before it's actually active. To make things even more preplexing, I opened three documents that use the exact same fonts and two of them showed Roboto Condensed inactive and the third had it as active. Any idea why this is happening?!
If not, it could be that for some of your documents Roboto Condensed was once installed with font files downloaded from Google Fonts perhaps. And the font files, usually with *.ttf suffix, will not match exactly the OpenType versions from Adobe Fonts.
I find quite a few font problems when our workstations have a combo of both Adobe Fonts and Google Fonts, even when they're the same font. We opt for Google Fonts exclusively and now have few problems.
Always make sure to read the license for each font you use. Most of the fonts in the collection use the SIL Open Font License, v1.1. Some fonts use the Apache 2 license. The Ubuntu fonts use the Ubuntu Font License v1.0.

Thank you for posting about this! We have recently provided a fix for this bug where condensed fonts were not loading properly on Windows machines. To receive this fix, please update to our release candidate build available here:
The fonts are described and examples are shown but they reference the fonts by an arcane naming convention like "Roboto Condensed 10 pt" which mean absolutely nothing to the developer who has to access it by its Graphics font name, "Graphics.FONT_TINY" (and I've probably got that wrong!)
EDIT: I meant FONT_MEDIUM (text font) vs FONT_NUMBER_MILD (number font), since they're different classes of fonts, but the person I'm replying to actually meant FONT_NUMBER_MEDIUM vs FONT_NUMBER_MILD. In the latter case, I would say that FONT_NUMBER_MEDIUM is always bigger than FONT_NUMBER_MILD.
There's also the somewhat well-known issue that some devices (like VA3/4) have lots of whitespace at the top of fonts, so that if you try to automatically resize your fonts to fit a container, end users will complain that your fonts are too small. Then you have to end up hardcoding some adjustments to ignore the whitespace.
As a matter of fact, I would guess that Garmin chose "fun" names for the number font sizes (like mild and hot), in part to differentiate them from the text fonts, and to avoid meaningless questions like "is mild bigger or smaller than small." Then again, they both have "medium".
to be honest imho the whole font naming system should be re-evaluated, now not all fonts available on the device are made available to the developer, for instance if you have a data field and try to match the size of the value field with what's available natively you have though luck....
Not sure what would be the best approach but some kind of array system containing refernces to the font would be a better approach imho... eg use something as Graphics.FONT[0] or ala limite have 2 arrays such as Graphics.FONT[0] and Graphics.FONT_NUMBER[0]
I added my font to my project. They are associated with the target. They are declared in the info.plist and the typo is right (copy/paste from the original files) and they contain the extension of course. They are in the "Copy ressources" of the build phase, they are part of the Font Family when I log them but enumerating fonts, they work through IB, and they are not set when the app is running... The fonts were download from the latest version on the Google website.
This will take care of ensuring PDF/PostScript usage. The location of thefont directory is displayed after the base import is complete. It is highlyrecommended that you install them on your system the same way you would anyother font you wish to use in other programs.
I see what you mean now, sorry about that. You would need to manually add the additional font weights to the theme PHP files (using a child theme), specifically enqueuing Google fonts. There are several great tutorials on the web showing you how to do that if of interest.

Roboto (/roʊˈbɒt.oʊ/)[2] is a neo-grotesque sans-serif typeface family developed by Google as the system font for its mobile operating system Android, and released in 2011 for Android 4.0 "Ice Cream Sandwich".[3]
Roboto Bold is the default font in Unreal Engine 4, and in Kodi.[6] Roboto Condensed is used to display Information on European versions of Nintendo Switch packaging, including physical releases of games.
The font was designed entirely in-house by Christian Robertson who previously had released an expanded Ubuntu Titling font through his personal type foundry Betatype.[9][10] The font was officially made available for free download on January 12, 2012, on the newly launched Android Design website.
Compared to Android's previous system font, the humanist sans-serif Droid, Roboto belongs to the neo-grotesque genre of sans-serif typefaces. It includes Thin, Light, Regular, Medium, Bold and Black weights with matching oblique styles rather than true italics. It also includes condensed styles in Light, Regular and Bold, also with matching oblique designs.
Roboto Slab is a slab serif font based on Roboto. It was introduced in March 2013, as the default font in Google's note-taking service Google Keep.[16] (The font was changed to the sans-serif Roboto in 2018.)[17] It is available in four weights: thin, light, regular and bold. However, no oblique versions were released for it. In November 2019, the typeface was updated and added 5 new weights: Extra-Light, Medium, Semi-Bold, Extra-Bold and Black, and a variable font axis ranging from 100 to 900. It also was modified with some characteristics from the sans-serif Roboto and to slightly resemble most slab-serif typefaces, such as "R", "K", "k", "g", "C", "S", etc.
Released in 2022, Roboto Flex is the variable font version of Roboto.[18] Roboto Flex has 12 adjustable axes, including optical size.[19] Notably, the static font version of Roboto does not have weights 200 (Extra Light), 600 (Semi Bold), and 800 (Extra Bold), which can be achieved by Roboto Flex via the weight axis. Roboto Flex supports Latin, Greek, and Cyrillic characters.
Roboto Flex was still not used as the default system font in Android, potentially replacing classic Roboto. Meanwhile, Google started to use Google Sans Text as the default system font for Android system apps (e.g. Settings) in Google Pixel devices, following other Android OEMs who introduce custom fonts to their system apps.
Inter was designed in 2017 by Rasmus Andersson who wanted a font that was easier to read on computer screens than Roboto while retaining its vertical proportions.[22] Earlier versions of Inter (then "Interface" and "Inter UI") included glyphs and followed the vertical glyph metrics (ascender and descender) from Roboto, while Roboto glyphs were included as a fallback for characters which have not been (re-)designed in Inter. Inter changed its vertical glyph metrics since 2018, making it different from that of Roboto.[23]
Inter also has an experimental "Display" version, a font which has less letter spacing and has linear endings of letters.[25] Another variant with similar purpose, Inter Tight, is specifically designed for Google Workspace and other applications that do not support control over letter spacing.[26] The latter variant shares the same glyph shapes as Inter, while the former contains redesigned glyphs which will be introduced in a future version of Inter.
Piboto is a forked version of Roboto, including the original character styles as used before the 2014 redesign. It is specifically designed and currently the system font of Raspberry Pi OS (then Raspbian) as part of their desktop UI redesign.[27]
