+Playfair Display Variable Font
+==============================
+
+This download contains Playfair Display as both variable fonts and static fonts.
+
+Playfair Display is a variable font with this axis:
+  wght
+
+This means all the styles are contained in these files:
+  PlayfairDisplay-VariableFont_wght.ttf
+  PlayfairDisplay-Italic-VariableFont_wght.ttf
+
+If your app fully supports variable fonts, you can now pick intermediate styles
+that aren’t available as static fonts. Not all apps support variable fonts, and
+in those cases you can use the static font files for Playfair Display:
+  static/PlayfairDisplay-Regular.ttf
+  static/PlayfairDisplay-Medium.ttf
+  static/PlayfairDisplay-SemiBold.ttf
+  static/PlayfairDisplay-Bold.ttf
+  static/PlayfairDisplay-ExtraBold.ttf
+  static/PlayfairDisplay-Black.ttf
+  static/PlayfairDisplay-Italic.ttf
+  static/PlayfairDisplay-MediumItalic.ttf
+  static/PlayfairDisplay-SemiBoldItalic.ttf
+  static/PlayfairDisplay-BoldItalic.ttf
+  static/PlayfairDisplay-ExtraBoldItalic.ttf
+  static/PlayfairDisplay-BlackItalic.ttf
+
+Get started
+-----------
+
+1. Install the font files you want to use
+
+2. Use your app's font picker to view the font family and all the
+available styles
