About the Lexend font
Lexend is a sans-serif typeface designed by Bonnie Shaver-Troup and Thomas Jockin and Santiago Orozco, first released to Google Fonts on March 2021. It ships with 9 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 75% 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 Lexend against the rest of the library by shape rather than by name.
Want to check whether Lexend 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.
