## Description

Noto Font Loader is a WordPress plugin that applies Noto font to your site. It loads
the correct Noto font file from Google Fonts depending on the site’s locale and 
overrides theme’s font settings.

#### The Goal

Most of WordPress themes are designed to display western languages. When I try to
use them on Japanese sites, it looks awkward due to lack of proper font settings(
these languages need to use a font other than default in order to look cool). So
when I met Noto font, I liked the font’s concept to cover every Unicode letters.

But the font files are separated for each language’s character set. I thought it
might be handy if the site could automatically choose which Noto font to use based
on the site’s locale.

#### When To Use

This plugin might be for you if you are in either of below situations:

 * Your site is translated into Chinese, Japanese and/or Korean
 * You just want to use Noto font

#### Covered Languages

The plugin currently handles the language-font combinations listed below:

 * Japanese – Noto Sans/Serif JP
 * Korean – Noto Sans/Serif KR
 * Simplified Chinese – Noto Sans/Serif SC
 * Traditional Chinese – Noto Sans/Serif TC

These are the languages graduated from [Early Access](https://fonts.google.com/earlyaccess)
directory and officially listed in Google Fonts. I intend to update the plugin when
the more languages are added in the future.

For all other locales, it uses standard Latin subset (Noto Sans/Serif).

#### Settings

From admin panel, you can choose what style to use from these 4 options:

 * Sans-serif
 * Serif
 * Headers: Serif / Body: Sans-serif
 * Headers: Sans-serif / Body: Serif
