About the Peddana font
Peddana is a serif typeface designed by Appaji Ambarisha Darbha, first released to Google Fonts on December 2014. 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 72% 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 Peddana against the rest of the library by shape rather than by name.
Want to check whether Peddana 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.
