About the B612 font
B612 is a sans-serif typeface designed by PolarSys and Nicolas Chauveau and Thomas Paillot, first released to Google Fonts on December 2018. It ships with 2 weights · italic 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 74% of the cap height, normal letter forms and low stroke contrast. Those three numbers are what the font finder uses to narrow an image down to the closest matches, so you can compare B612 against the rest of the library by shape rather than by name.
