Description

Most "typewriter" fonts are unrealistic: each instance of a particular letter looks identical. In text produced by a real typewriter, characters vary with each press of the key.

TT2020 mimics the appearance of typewritten text in a novel way: the font contains nine slightly different copies of each glyph, and (when used in a modern font layout engine) selects one of these copies in a pseudorandom fashion using OpenType's "contextual alternates" feature.

TT2020 is also multilingual, providing Latin, Cyrillic, Greek, and Hebrew characters, as well as italic variants.
