About the IBM Plex Sans JP font
IBM Plex Sans JP is a sans-serif typeface designed by Mike Abbink and Bold Monday, first released to Google Fonts on September 2022. It ships with 7 weights 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 IBM Plex Sans JP against the rest of the library by shape rather than by name.
