Qiji-font is an open-source Ming Dynasty typeface extracted from 16th-century woodblock printed books using semi-automatic computer vision and OCR. It is a work in progress intended for Classical Chinese text, including use with the wenyan-lang programming language.
Use cases
- render classical Chinese text in an authentic Ming Dynasty woodblock style
- find a free open-source Chinese typeface for traditional characters
- extract glyphs from scanned historical books using OCR and computer vision
- use a period-accurate font with the wenyan-lang Classical Chinese programming language
- study how to digitize typefaces from historical printed sources
When to choose
- you need a Ming-era aesthetic typeface for Classical Chinese or wenyan-lang projects
- you want an OFL-licensed open-source Chinese font
- you are researching glyph extraction from historical woodblock prints
When to avoid
- you need full coverage of modern simplified Chinese characters
- you need a stable, complete font for production use
- you need a font with many weights or variable font features
