Fallback while it loads
Until Miranda Sans loads, this sets Arial in its place at 104.5% of its size, so running text keeps Miranda Sans’s width and lines keep their height: nothing moves when it arrives.

Questions about Miranda Sans
Answered from its licence, Google Fonts and each app’s own font list
Is Miranda Sans free for commercial use?
Yes. Miranda Sans is under the SIL Open Font License 1.1 , which allows commercial use at any scale, logos, websites, apps and PDFs included.
How do I download and install Miranda Sans?
FontKind doesn’t host Miranda Sans’s files: it comes free from Google Fonts . On its page there, choose Get font, then Download all, and unzip the file. It holds two variable files, one for the uprights and one for the italics, and a static folder with a file per style: install one set or the other, not both. On Windows or a Mac, double-click each font file and choose Install, then restart any app that was open, Word included.
Is Miranda Sans in Microsoft Word?
Not until you install it: Miranda Sans isn’t one of Microsoft 365’s cloud fonts. Installed, it is in Word’s font menu and PowerPoint’s. On Windows, its weights beyond Regular and Bold show as fonts of their own, such as Miranda Sans Medium and Miranda Sans SemiBold. For someone who hasn’t installed it, turn on Embed fonts in the file in Word’s save options: its licence allows that.
How many weights does Miranda Sans have?
Miranda Sans comes in four weights: Regular (400), Medium (500), SemiBold (600) and Bold (700), each with an italic. It is a variable font: it takes any weight from 400 to 700.
