The Average Font

I came across this post post where the author created a font by averaging together all fonts on his machine. I thought it would be cool to do the same for all fonts on the internet -- here's the average of about 375k distinct fonts

It's interesting that shapes are clearly seen even though fonts on the web are quite noisy, here's a random sample of things that make up the A above

I especially like the two guys carrying a dead goat.

How did you determine that fonts were distinct?

They are distinct if the binary files are not bit-by-bit identical. So there are probably a few hundred copies of Arial, Helvetica, etc

An "average font" is a standard font suitable for general purposes, with characteristics such as readability, versatility, and neutral appearance. Common examples include Arial, Times New Roman, Helvetica, and Calibri. Fonts typically have basic shapes and consistent spacing, making them suitable for various applications. They are suitable for documents, reports, websites, applications, and print media. Average fonts are often chosen for professional use, creative projects, and customization. They can be adjusted in weights and styles, and free alternatives like Google Fonts and Adobe Fonts offer easy-to-access options. Choosing an average font depends on the context and project type Fairfax Domestic Violence Lawyer.
