About Source Code Pro

Part of Adobe's Source type system, Source Code Pro was designed by Paul D. Hunt as a fixed-pitch complement to Source Sans — sharing its humanist proportions while adopting the even character widths required for code display. The variable weight axis spanning eight stops is a notable engineering achievement for a monospace typeface, and broad script support including Cyrillic, Greek, and Vietnamese makes it one of the most internationally capable coding fonts available. Its combination of legibility, neutrality, and typographic refinement has made it a popular choice for both code editors and terminal emulators.
