⚠️ WARNING: The CFF2 Variable Font format adopted by this typeface cannot be correctly handled by Windows 10/11 currently. Until this is fixed, DO NOT install the variable font format (ChironSansHKVF.otf) if you are using Windows 10/11. While it can be installed, the Windows font engine will crash whenever the font is accessed. When this happens, a reboot is required.

Changes:

  • Various glyph updates and remaps.

⚠️ 注意:Windows 10/11 目前不能正確處理本字體所使用的 CFF2 可變字型格式。在 Microsoft 修復此問題之前,使用者切勿在 Windows 10/11 安裝可變式可型版本(ChironSansHKVF.otf)。雖然字體能正常安裝,使用者存取字型時卻會導致系統字型引擎崩潰而必須重新開機。

更新事項:

  • 部份字圖及對映更新。

  • Fixed the outlines of the following glyphs: 莂 (U+8382), 蟉 (U+87C9), 鍃 (U+9343), 鏠 (U+93E0), 鑱 (U+9471), 饝 (U+995D), 䘵 (U+4635), 䱚 (U+4C5A), 哵 (U+54F5), 寥 (U+5BE5).
  • Remapped and redesigned >100 glyphs. These glyphs have a “大” or “禾” (e.g. 莫/奐; 央/矢/奏/癸/秦 included) at the bottom or bottom-right, with the last stroke rendered as a “Dot” (點). The “Pressed” (捺) form is preferred.

  • 修正以下字元之字圖:莂 (U+8382),蟉 (U+87C9),鍃 (U+9343),鏠 (U+93E0),鑱 (U+9471),饝 (U+995D),䘵 (U+4635),䱚 (U+4C5A),哵 (U+54F5),寥 (U+5BE5)。
  • 重繪及更改對映逾 100 字碼/字圖,主要屬含「大」或「禾」在底部(如莫、奐,包括央、矢、奏、癸、秦)而末筆讓作點的字,改從捺。

  • All daily used characters should now adhere to the font's preferred form. Starting from v2.040, redesigned characters that are not frequently used will not be explicitly mentioned in the changelog (this file). Please consult meta.json for the redesigned character count of each release.

  • 網頁字型 Webfont 補回英文單引號字元 (U+2018 ‘,U+2019 ’)。
  • 將下列「康熙部首」區 (U+2F00-U+2FDF) 字元對映至本字體所屬意式樣:U+2F10 ⼐,U+2F50 ⽐,U+2F78 ⽸,U+2FAC ⾬,U+2FBF ⾿,U+2FC5 ⿅,U+2FC9 ⿉,U+2FD2 ⿒。
  • 昭源黑體的常用字元已經符合本字體的設計方針,由 v2.040 版開始,更新紀錄檔(本檔案)不會再逐一列出非常用字元的字圖修改。欲知各版本的重繪字元數變更,請參考 meta.json

Version 2.035a

Caution: The previous v2.035 release (now removed) contains corrupted font files. Don't use it.
注意: 之前發表的 v2.035 版本(現已移除)包含損毀的字型檔案,請勿使用。

  • Upstream version updated to Source Han Sans 2.003. Notice: the scale of glyphs in the intermediate weights (Light, Normal, Regular, Medium, Bold) has been adjusted slightly because of the building pipeline change in Source Han Sans to support the new variable font format.
  • Added a new variable font (VF) configuration. The font name for this configuration is Chiron Sans HK VF.
  • The web font configuration is now in variable font format. All weights are contained in a single file. It is now possible for designers to specify arbitrary font weight values. The font weight numbers have been adjusted to match Source Han Sans VF. Finally, the CSS files which local installed font resources take precedence are now removed.
  • Redesigned the following 20 characters: 㔆㚬㶴㷇䓎䖅奿娛媁嫾岺撍栾焲熩爤豅𢲷𨥉𪊲.

Remarks: There are a few known issues in the VF version of Source Han Sans v2.003 which also affects Chiron Sans HK VF. I decided to roll a new release that includes the VF variant because I believe the webfont VF configuration is a worthy update. It feels strange when a release only contains a WOFF2 VF but no desktop version, so a desktop OpenType/CFF2 variable font is also included anyway.


  • 上游版本更新至思源黑體 2.003 版。本版思源黑體由於新增可變式字型格式支援,製作流程有所更改,所以中間字重 (Light, Normal, Regular, Medium, Bold) 的字圖大小跟前版略有分別。
  • 新增可變式字型 (Variable Font, VF),字型名稱是 Chiron Sans HK VF。
  • 網頁字型改用可變式字型格式,一個檔案有齊所有字重,並可任意指定字重值。字重值跟隨思源黑體作出調整。另外移除了優先使用系統字體的 CSS 檔案。
  • 增加以下 20 字的修改字圖:㔆㚬㶴㷇䓎䖅奿娛媁嫾岺撍栾焲熩爤豅𢲷𨥉𪊲。

備註:思源黑體 v2.003 的 VF 格式有幾個已知問題,這些問題亦會出現在昭源黑體 VF。我最後仍決定推出配置 VF 格式的昭源黑體新版,因為我認為 VF 版網頁字型非常值得更新,假如只提供網頁用的可變式字型卻不提供桌面版本又會顯得奇怪,於是最後還是將桌面版 OpenType/CFF2 可變式字型收入。

  • Fixed the design of 瓊 (U+74CA), it is now mapped to the alternate JP glyph.
  • Redesigned the following 7 characters: 幠菕鑗鑶龲𨰣𩸽.
  • The following 38 characters are now using the design in Source Han Sans V1: 吙嗧埮悐晱栺梑瀱炋烒烳焟焨焺焻煂煔煰熁熂熼燆燨爅爏爧竼笁笚笝龦𠐔𠴲𢅺𤅗𧅥𩡗𩸭.
  • As most browsers now support the latest font-weight syntax which allows arbitrary numeric font-weight value between 1 and 1000, the font-weight value for Normal in the webfont build is changed to 370.

  • 將瓊 (U+74CA) 對映到 JP 源異體字以修正字形筆畫。
  • 增加以下 7 字的修改字圖:幠菕鑗鑶龲𨰣𩸽。
  • 以下 38 字改用思源第一版字圖:吙嗧埮悐晱栺梑瀱炋烒烳焟焨焺焻煂煔煰熁熂熼燆燨爅爏爧竼笁笚笝龦𠐔𠴲𢅺𤅗𧅥𩡗𩸭。
  • 現時大部份瀏覽器已容許 font-weight 指定任何 1-1000 以內的數值,因此將網頁字型 Normal 字重的 font-weight 值改為 370,以避免跟 Regular 重疊。
