machine-made Sans
A reading sans for text and interfaces. It keeps the geometry, tall x-height and open counters of Plus Jakarta Sans, makes the straight alternates the default forms, and puts the sharp forms in stylistic set ss02.
Specimen
Set for reading
Every result a machine hands you is checked by another machine.
machine-made Sans sits next to Weft. Its x-height is tall and its counters are open, so it stays clear at small sizes on screens. The straight forms give it a plain, flat look, and the sharp set in ss02 gives it the cut look of the monospace.
