Shiromeda SemBd specimen from Geez Archive

A single semibold weight covering the full Ethiopic Unicode range for Amharic, designed by Abraham Abebe and released in 2019.

About

Shiromeda SemBd provides complete coverage of the main Ethiopic block (U+1200–U+137F) and the Ethiopic Supplement (U+1380–U+139F), totalling 811 glyphs across 416 code points. Released as a TTF with a companion web API, it targets Amharic-language projects requiring reliable script support at a single weight. Latin characters are included as a basic complement.

Classification

A single-weight Ethiopic script font covering the full Amharic Unicode range. The Latin sample suggests a straightforward sans-serif structure, but the primary design intent is Ethiopic coverage for Amharic text.
