Croscore Fonts

The Chrome OS core fonts, also known as the Croscore fonts, consist of Arimo (sans-serif), Tinos (serif) and Cousine (monospace). These fonts are metrically compatible with Monotype Corporation's Arial, Times New Roman, and Courier New, respectively. Google licenses these fonts from Ascender Corporation. The fonts were originally developed by Steve Matteson as Ascender Sans and Ascender Serif, and were also the basis for the Liberation fonts licensed by Red Hat under another open source license. In July 2012, version 2.0 of the Liberation fonts, based on the Croscore fonts, was released under the SIL Open Font License. The fonts are also available at the Noto fonts repository on Github.

In 2013, Google released an additional Crosextra (Chrome OS Extra) package, featuring Carlito (which matches Microsoft's Calibri) and Caladea (matching Microsoft's Cambria). These two fonts are respectively metric-adjusted versions of Lato and Cambo, both available on Google Fonts.
