Frequently asked questions

What is a variable font?

A single font file containing multiple weights and styles, controlled by axes like wght (weight) and wdth (width). It replaces multiple static files with one optimised file.

When should I use font-variation-settings?

Only when you need to control axes that CSS does not expose directly. For weight, use font-weight — it is faster and better supported.

Are variable fonts smaller than static fonts?

Usually. One variable file often loads faster than 4+ static weight files combined, especially with WOFF2 compression.
