ABOUT

Hiyoshi Takao

Takao Mincho and Takao Gothic (2010-2011) are two free Japanese kanji fonts named after Hiyoshi Takao, the original designer of TypeBank Mincho and Gothic, which in turn led to the development of the IPA fonts. IPA Fonts are high-quality Japanese outline fonts developed by the Information-technology Promotion Agency (or IPA) in Japan under a very free license. Takao font maintainers are Arne Goetje, Fumihito Yoshida, Hideki Yamane, Jun Kobayashi (head), Kazuhiro Nishiyama, Kevin Huang, Nobuto Murata, and Satoru Matsumoto.
