# Google Fonts Files
This project contains the binary font files served by Google Fonts: https://fonts.google.com
This project mainly contains the binary font files served by Google Fonts ([fonts.google.com](https://fonts.google.com))
The top level directories indicate the license of all files found within them.
Subdirectories are named according to the family name of the fonts within.
Each family subdirectory contains the `.ttf` font files served by Google Fonts, plus a `METADATA.pb` file with metadata for the family (such as information on the project designer(s), genre category, and license - [learn more](https://github.com/googlefonts/gf-docs/tree/master/METADATA)) and a `DESCRIPTION.en_us.html` with a description of the family in US English.
The `/catalog` subdirectory contains additional metadata, such as profile texts and portrait/avatar images of font designers, and this is open for contributions and corrections from anyone via Github.
