About the Allerta Stencil font
Allerta Stencil is a sans-serif typeface designed by Matt McInerney, first released to Google Fonts on November 2010. It ships with 1 weight and is licenced under the SIL Open Font License, which permits commercial use in websites, apps, documents and print without attribution or payment.
Its measured character is a medium x-height at 77% of the cap height, normal letter forms and high stroke contrast. Those three numbers are what the font finder uses to narrow an image down to the closest matches, so you can compare Allerta Stencil against the rest of the library by shape rather than by name.
