# Lato Font [![Bower version](https://badge.fury.io/bo/lato-font.svg)](http://badge.fury.io/bo/lato-font) [![npm version](https://badge.fury.io/js/lato-font.svg)](http://badge.fury.io/js/lato-font) This is the latest official `2.015` web-version of the OpenSource [Lato font][lato] suitable to be used with [npm][npm] or [Bower][bower]. > Support for legacy EOT and TTF font types are dropped in version `3.0.0`. > If you need this for [old devices](http://caniuse.com/#feat=woff), please use the version `2.0.0`. ## Features - latest official web-optimized version of the *Lato* font - supports all unicode ranges (i.e. languages), variants and styles provided by *Lato* font - provides both *CSS* and *SCSS* (*SASS/Compass*) integration options - installs with *Bower* and *npm* - individual fonts can be added to a project using [*SCSS* integration][scss-api] - all fonts can be added to a project just by including provided CSS-file - library is extremely customizable and provides very convenient [*SCSS* API][scss-api] ## Installation ### Install library with *npm* `npm i -D lato-font` ### Install library with *Bower* `bower install --save-dev lato-font` ## Usage Either [link library directly via *CSS*][css-integration] or use provided [SCSS API][scss-api] in your build process. By using [*SCSS* API][scss-api] you can easily add individual fonts to your project! ### Hint *Medium* versions of *Lato* font (both regular and italic) are available under the `Lato Medium` name instead of just `Lato`. This is required because *Medium* and *Normal* variants are using the same weight of `400`. *CSS* only supports values divisible by `100` for the `font-weight` property. ### CSS integration Just link provided CSS file to your page: `` Then use provided font-faces it in your CSS: ```css h1 { font-family: Lato; font-weight: 900; font-style: normal; } p.quote { font-family: "Lato Medium"; font-weight: 400; font-style: italic; } ``` ### SCSS API The best way to use this font library is by integration with *SCSS* (*SASS/Compass*). Consider this example: ```scss @import 'public-api'; $lato-font-path: '/bower_component/lato-font/fonts'; @include lato-include-font('black'); @include lato-include-font('medium'); h1 { @include lato-font('black'); } p.quote { @include lato-font('medium', italic); } ``` You can see the list of available mixins in `/scss/public/_mixins.scss`. List of available variants is in `/scss/internal/_variables.scss`. You can override font path directory using `$lato-font-path` variable. ## Feedback If you have found a bug or have another issue with the library - please [create an issue][new-issue] in this GitHub repository. If you have a question - file it with [StackOverflow][so-ask] and send me a link to [s.fomin@betsol.ru][email]. I will be glad to help.
