About the Fustat font
Fustat is a sans-serif typeface designed by Mohamed Gaber and Laura Garcia Mut and Khaled Hosny, first released to Google Fonts on June 2024. It ships with 7 weights · variable 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 71% 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 Fustat against the rest of the library by shape rather than by name.
