At a glance
The Shintaro Ajioka Kana Maru Gothic family provides kana by type designer Shintaro Ajioka, made to sit with TypeBank Maru Gothic kanji. Each weight (R, H) comes with five kana designs, Komachi, Ryokan, Tsukiji, Yukinari, and Kodoken, so one kanji face can take on five different personalities. The fonts were published by Enfour as Naked CID ATM fonts, which can be embedded in PDF, and as OCF PostScript fonts.
