About the Parastoo font
Parastoo is a serif typeface designed by Saber Rastikerdar, first released to Google Fonts on May 2025. It ships with 4 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, condensed letter forms and high stroke contrast. Those three numbers are what the font finder uses to narrow an image down to the closest matches, so you can compare Parastoo against the rest of the library by shape rather than by name.
