About the Chenla font
Chenla is a display typeface designed by Danh Hong, first released to Google Fonts on March 2011. 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 medium stroke contrast. Those three numbers are what the font finder uses to narrow an image down to the closest matches, so you can compare Chenla against the rest of the library by shape rather than by name.
Want to check whether Chenla is the face in a screenshot you have? Run it through the free font identifier, or browse the full library of 1,935 open-source fonts for something with a similar feel.
