Fallback while it loads
Until Tabular loads, this sets Arial in its place at 134.3% of its size, so running text keeps Tabular’s width and lines keep their height: nothing moves when it arrives.

Questions about Tabular
Answered from its licence, Fontshare and each app’s own font list
Is Tabular free for commercial use?
Yes. Tabular is under the ITF Free Font License 2.0 , which allows commercial use, logos you can register as trademarks and your own websites and apps. But its files may not be changed, not even subset, nor passed outside your organisation.
How do I download and install Tabular?
FontKind doesn’t host Tabular’s files: it comes free from Fontshare , Indian Type Foundry’s library, and only from there. Download it from its page there and unzip the file. On Windows or a Mac, double-click each font file and choose Install, then restart any app that was open.
Is Tabular in Microsoft Word?
Not until you install it: Tabular 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 Tabular Light and Tabular SemiBold. For someone who hasn’t installed it, save it as a PDF, which carries the font with it.
Is Tabular in Google Docs?
Probably not: the More fonts list in Docs draws on Google Fonts, and Tabular comes from Fontshare. Docs can’t add a font of your own, so set it in an app on your computer, such as Word, instead.
Is Tabular in Figma?
Not built in: Figma includes Google Fonts, and Tabular comes from Fontshare. Install it on your computer and Figma lists it.
How many weights does Tabular have?
Tabular comes in five weights: Light (300), Regular (400), Medium (500), SemiBold (600) and Bold (700), each with an italic.
Who designed Tabular?
Tabular was designed by Jérémie Hornus and Julie Soudanne. Jérémie Hornus also made Inria Sans, Inria Serif, Alpino and seven more on FontKind.
