Font Introduction

In December 2020, FONTWORKS, a famous Japanese font manufacturer, released seven open source Japanese fonts on GitHub, of which Klee One has the largest number of characters and Imitating Song Dynasty and Regular script With elegant appearance and high readability, it is very suitable for text typesetting. Compared with the general textbook style, Klee One retains the tradition printing Some characteristics of fonts. In 2021, Haze duck lxgw On the basis of it, add and modify the font to make " Xia Tu Wen Kai "/LXGW WenKai font is widely welcomed. In addition, some font lovers have also produced other derivative versions, such as " Coriander /Iansui, etc.

Although Xiapai regular script has modified the Chinese characters within the scope of GB/T 2312-80 and the General Specification of Chinese Characters Table to make it close to the new Chinese characters introduced in mainland China, it still retains the features of Klee One printing, such as the straight point of "亠亠亠亠亠亠亠亠亠㇜㇜㇜" and the broken pen design at the corners of strokes, etc. Therefore, some people believe that Xiapai regular script is not standardized, It is not "G source font" and does not conform to the writing habit of regular script. In view of this, on the basis of Xia Tu Wen Kai, I further modified the font and pen shape as strictly as possible in accordance with the Chinese mainland font standard (G source font), continued to use the name of "Xia Tu Wen Kai", and added the suffix "GB" to indicate that the font follows the national standard.

At present, the font contains 8105 Chinese characters included in the General Standard Chinese Character List (2013), 7000 Chinese characters included in the General Modern Chinese Character List (1988), and Chinese characters included in GB/T 2312-80, basically meeting the requirements of modern Chinese（ simplified Chinese character Chinese characters) are required for use and suitable for educational purposes (such as compulsory education books, children's books, copybooks, etc.). Since the regular weight of Klee font is too thin, the SemiBold weight of the original font is selected as the regular weight of this font.

matters needing attention

For the adjustment of this font, refer to the General Standard Chinese Character Table, GF 0023-2020 General Standard Chinese Character Stroke Order Specification, and other regular script and imitation Song script (such as "Standard Regular Script for Teaching Materials") that follow the national standard. Try to eliminate Klee One's "straight point", "broken pen" and other traditional print features, and conform to the writing habit of regular script. However, a few of the differences between the standard Kaishu characters and the standard Kaishu characters are regarded as unchanged styles. For example, because of the large number of characters involved in the surrounding word box "mouth" and other parts, the original style of Klee is retained without modification; In addition, it is limited to the original style of Klee font, and does not distinguish between "hanging needle vertical" and "hanging exposed vertical".
