About Zen Antique Soft

Zen Antique Soft is a serif typeface designed by Yoshimichi Ohira. Serif fonts feature small decorative strokes at the ends of letterforms, giving them a traditional typographic character. They can suit editorial layouts, book-style text, printed materials, headings, and designs that call for a classic serif appearance.

This typeface comes in one style: Regular (weight 400). Its single weight offers a straightforward choice for projects that do not require multiple font weights. The supported scripts are Latin, Greek, and Cyrillic, making the font suitable for text written with these writing systems.

Zen Antique Soft is available in TTF and WOFF2 formats for desktop and web font workflows. It is distributed under the SIL Open Font License 1.1, which permits commercial use subject to the license terms. Preview your text to see how the typeface fits your layout, then choose the format that works for your project.

Use Zen Antique Soft on your website

Copy the CSS below. Option B needs the font files uploaded to a fonts/ folder on your own server first.

Option A: use the font directly from Fonts1 (no upload needed)

@font-face {
  font-family: 'Zen Antique Soft';
  src: url('https://files.fonts1.com/fonts1/fonts/3102/4d9903917e-zenantiquesoft-regular.woff2') format('woff2');
  font-weight: 400;
  font-style: normal;
  font-display: swap;
}

Quickest way to try it. For a busy production site, Option B (your own server) is more reliable.

Option B: self-host (download, then upload to your server)

@font-face {
  font-family: 'Zen Antique Soft';
  src: url('fonts/ZenAntiqueSoft-Regular.woff2') format('woff2');
  font-weight: 400;
  font-style: normal;
  font-display: swap;
}

2. Apply it

body {
  font-family: 'Zen Antique Soft', serif;
}

  1. Download the font family (ZIP) and extract it.

Fonts that pair well with Zen Antique Soft

Good design mixes two or three fonts. These are picked from a different style (a clean sans next to a script, a serif next to a sans) so they stay easy to tell apart and cover the same language.
