- @riccard0 @googlefonts Thanks for your wish list! 1 year ago
- @davelab6 @tobestobs A great example of use! Scaling/zooming screens are the main reason to think twice. Absolutely worth Google attempting! 1 year ago
- @MrBrezina I am confident that different shapes and spacing can solve for smcaps. Larger counters than droid's make bold easier to push in. 1 year ago

Thanks for your great work!
When I download the font, install it into OS 10.6 Font Book, and then select Merriweather in Photoshop Elements, I get different characters than the ones I typed.
Example: Maine becomes —OWbS.
Works great in other apps.
Any suggestions?
I am not sure what is causing that but my guess is that it could be an encoding issue so I will change the encoding to try to fix it. I will try to reproduce the bug this week so I can find a solution.
Thanks for looking into this! I can’t wait to use Merriweather in PSE.
I just downloaded the packages with the new weights … great!
Just FYI, Light, Bold, and Black weights render correctly in Photoshop Elements, but the Regular still transposes different characters from what was entered.
I am sorry. I thought I had that problem solved. I will look at trying to fix this again in the next edition. That edition is coming fairly quickly – there are some other issues I am dealing with in that as well. Then HINTING!
Thank you!
Love it if you added horizontal ellipsis to the the character set.
Happily that is now in there!
This update sadly had to delete a new glyphs used by Eastern European languages but it adds horizontal ellipsis and many other glyphs normally font in fonts with both the Windows ANSI encoding and the Mac Roman encodings.
I would love to see what you use Merriweather for BTW!
Found Merriweather because I saw it in use on this site http://whiteboard.is/
Looks great!
Thanks for showing me this! That is a very sophisticated looking site. It is fascinating to see what people do with the font. With the new hinted version that’s coming I hope to see it in more body text too. If you have any more URLs to share please do post them. Thanks!
Great attention to detail, Thanks Eben.
Thanks!
I’ve been looking for a desktop version of the updated Merriweather because I’ve found a TTF on fontsquirrel.com before. I’d like to be able to use it for Photoshop mockups and such. Is there a place that has the newest version for desktop download?
There are a few different answers to this question depending on your needs.
- I will send you a OTF by email for your own use today.
- If you want a professional version with kerning and which is optimized for print and which has open type features like Small Caps and capital specific punctuation you will have to wait for a print optimized version to be sold which will happen sometime in the next 6 months.
- The version I am sending you will be available from Google and other sources sometime in the next month.
