Windows: Download the fonts from the Releases, select the font files and right click, then hit “Install”.
- On Windows 10 1809 or newer the default font installation is per-user, and it may cause compatibility issues for some applications, mostly written in Java. To cope with this, right click and select “Install for all users” instead. Ref.

In the official package, Iosevka provides 6 monospace subfamilies and 3 quasi-proportional subfamilies. In all the monospace subfamilies, 9 weights (Thin to Heavy), 2 widths (Normal and Extended), and 3 slopes (Upright, Italic and Oblique) are included. In the quasi-proportional subfamilies, the quantity of widths is reduced to 1.
All versions include the same ranges of characters: Latin letters, Greek letters (including Polytonic), some Cyrillic letters, IPA symbols and common punctuations and some symbols. You can check out the full list here.

Monospace Iosevka contains various stylistic sets to change the shape of certain characters. Enabling corresponded OpenType feature to enable.
Alongside stylistic sets, Monospace Iosevka can also be configured to cherry-pick variants for each character using OpenType. The variants are shown below. To enable, assign the feature tag to the variant index. For example, setting cv11
to 2
will enable single-storey a
.
Caution : Certain software may limit the quantity of OpenType features and drop some of them if the feature list is too long. Please validate your feature configuration to ensure that it worked in your software.
Monospace subfamilies support ligations. Iosevka’s default ligation set is assigned to calt
feature, though not all of them are enabled by default.

Iosevka supports Language-Specific Ligations, which is the ligation set enabled only under certain languages. These ligation sets are assigned to custom feature tags. To use them, you need to turn off calt
and enable the corresponded feature. The feature list is:
Please note that, due to the complex interactions when forming ligations, cherry-picking ligation groups will require a custom Iosevka build. The instructions could be seen below.
To build Iosevka you should:
- Ensure that
nodejs
(≥ 12.16.0) andttfautohint
are present, and accessible fromPATH
. - Run
npm install
. This command will install all the NPM dependenceis, and will also validate whether external dependencies are present. npm run build -- contents::iosevka
.
You will find TTFs, as well as WOFF(2) web fonts and one Webfont CSS in the dist/
directory.
A Docker container handling the build environment for you can be found here.
To pull it from Docker Hub and start a standard build of the latest released version, run
docker run -it -v $(pwd):/build avivace/iosevka-build
Fonts files will be placed in the dist
folder.
You can provide private-build.plans.toml
for a customized build and/or specify the desired release appending -e FONT_VERSION=X.X.X
. to the Docker command.
To create a custom build, you need:
-
Create
private-build-plans.toml
file if absent. -
Add a build plan into
private-build-plans.toml
. The configurable properties are described in the following sections. -
Run
npm run build -- contents::<your plan name>
and the built fonts would be available indist/
. Aside fromcontents::<plan>
, other options are:contents::<plan>
: TTF (Hinted and Unhinted), WOFF(2) and Web font CSS;ttf::<plan>
: TTF;ttf-unhinted::<plan>
: Unhinted TTF only;webfont::<plan>
: Web fonts only (CSS + WOFF2);woff2::<plan>
: WOFF2 only.
Configuration of build plans are organized under [buildPlans.<plan name>]
sections in the private-build-plans.toml
. You can use the Customizer to create the build plan, and/or manulally edit them, following the instructions below.
Inside the plan, top-level properties include:
family
: String, defines the family name of your custom variant.spacing
: Optional, String, denotes the spacing of the custom variant. Valid values include:term
: Make the symbols' width suitable for terminal emulators. Arrows and geometric symbols will become narrower.fontconfig-mono
: Applyterm
spacing changes and further apply changes to be compatible with FontConfig's Mono spacing, which recognizes a font as monospace if and only if its every non-combining characters having the same width. The changes include:- Completely remove wide glyphs. All non-combining glyphs will be exactly the same width.
- As a consequence, the following characters will be removed:
U+27F5
LONG LEFTWARDS ARROWU+27F6
LONG RIGHTWARDS ARROW
- As a consequence, the following characters will be removed:
- Remove
NWID
andWWID
OpenType feature.
- Completely remove wide glyphs. All non-combining glyphs will be exactly the same width.
fixed

changes and further remove ligations.

Subsection weights
is used to change the weight grades that the custom family needs. It is a dictionary of sub-objects with properties:
shape
: Integer, configures the weight grade of the glyphs' shapes.menu
: Integer, configures the weight grade used when naming fonts.css
: Integer, configures the weight grade used in web font CSS.
Subsection widths
is used to change the weight grades that the custom family needs. It is a dictionary of sub-objects with properties:
shape
: Integer, configures the width of the glyphs' shapes, measured in 1/1000 em.menu
: Integer, configures the width grade used when naming fonts. The valid values are1
to9
, inclusive.css
: String, configures the font-stretch value used in web font CSS.
Subsection slopes
is a simple string-to-string dictionary maps slopes (upright
, italic
or oblique
) to CSS font-style values, represented in string.
Certain software, notably Emacs, relies on pre-encoded ligatures instead of OpenType to provide ligations. Iosevka could be configured with additional subsection compatibility-ligatures
, being an array of records with following fields:
unicode
: The PUA code point being assigned to.featureTag
: The feature tag to compute ligations.sequence
: The source character sequence.
A sample of compatibility ligature config is:
[[buildPlans.iosevka-custom.compatibility-ligatures]]
unicode = 57600 # 0xE100
featureTag = 'calt'
sequence = '<*>'
A sample configuration could be found at private-build-plans.sample.toml.
