Ubuntu Mono

Dalton Maag · Dalton Maag · 2011 · UFL-1.0

The fixed-width member of the family Canonical commissioned for the Ubuntu desktop, and the one that ended up in more terminals than menus. It carries the humanist details of the sans into a monospaced grid — the curl on the g, the way the l finishes — which is harder than it sounds and is why most code faces give up and go geometric instead. The zero is dotted rather than slashed, which is the detail to look for if you are checking you have the mono and not the sans. Four files: a regular, a bold, and a true drawn italic for each.

Use it on the web

Self-hosted

You serve the file yourself. Nothing depends on this site staying up, and you get the whole character set — all Latin, Latin Extended, Türkçe, Cyrillic, Cyrillic Extended, Greek, Greek Extended.

@font-face {
  font-family: 'Ubuntu Mono';
  /* The download contains .ttf files. Put yours wherever you serve static
     files from and point this at it. Converting to .woff2 first cuts the
     size by roughly 60% and every current browser supports it. */
  src: url('/fonts/ubuntu-mono.woff2') format('woff2');
  font-weight: 400;
  font-style: normal;
  font-display: swap;
}

body {
  font-family: 'Ubuntu Mono', monospace;
}

Hosted by us

One line, nothing to upload. Put this in your <head>:

<link rel="preconnect" href="https://thatsmyfont.com">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://thatsmyfont.com/fontfiles/ubuntu-mono.css">

Then use it in your CSS:

body {
  font-family: 'Ubuntu Mono', monospace;
}

One thing to know: the file we host is cut down to Latin characters so pages load quickly. Ubuntu Mono also covers Türkçe, Cyrillic, Cyrillic Extended, Greek, Greek Extended, and for those you need the download and the self-hosted route.

Questions

Is Ubuntu Mono free for commercial use?
Yes. Ubuntu Mono is released under the Ubuntu Font Licence 1.0, which allows commercial use with no fee and no attribution requirement. You can use it in client work, in products you sell, on the web and in print. Its conditions are about the font rather than your work: every copy you pass on has to carry the licence, the unmodified font has to keep its name, and a modified version cannot be released under a different licence. The licence is inside the download.
Can I use Ubuntu Mono in a logo?
Yes. The licence covers the font software, not the artwork you make with it, so a logo set in Ubuntu Mono belongs to you — including if you later register it as a trademark. You do not need permission and you do not owe anything to Dalton Maag. What the licence stops you doing is redistributing the font file itself as a product.
How do I install Ubuntu Mono?
Download the zip and unzip it. On a Mac, select the 4 font files inside and open them, then press Install Font. On Windows, select them, right-click and choose Install. Restart any application that was already open before it will show up.
Does Ubuntu Mono support Turkish?
Yes. Ubuntu Mono includes the characters Türkçe needs that plain Latin does not — the dotless ı, the dotted İ, and ğ, ş, ü, ö and ç in both cases. This was checked against the font file itself, not assumed from the fact that it covers Latin.
Does Ubuntu Mono support Latin, Latin Extended, Turkish, Cyrillic, Cyrillic Extended, Greek and Greek Extended?
Yes. Ubuntu Mono covers Latin, Latin Extended, Turkish, Cyrillic, Cyrillic Extended, Greek and Greek Extended, across 1,296 glyphs. Anything outside those alphabets is not included — the character map further up this page shows exactly what you get.
