The best Epilogue pairings
01 · Epilogue + Inter
Design that makes the first impression last
Good type does its work quietly. The headline sets the voice, the body carries the reading, and the contrast between them tells the eye where to go first.
Epilogue sets sharp, slightly condensed headlines with an editorial edge, and Inter stays legible at small sizes thanks to its tall x-height. Two sans-serifs pair through contrast of weight and width: set the headline heavy and tight, the body regular and open.
02 · Epilogue + Newsreader

04 · Epilogue + DM Sans
Design that makes the first impression last
Good type does its work quietly. The headline sets the voice, the body carries the reading, and the contrast between them tells the eye where to go first.
Epilogue sets sharp, slightly condensed headlines with an editorial edge, and DM Sans is light and open, so long paragraphs never feel heavy. Two sans-serifs pair through contrast of weight and width: set the headline heavy and tight, the body regular and open.
Using Epilogue on a website
Sizes
Epilogue is a headline face: use it from about 28px up, for headings, hero lines and short labels, and set paragraphs in a calmer partner.
Spacing
At large sizes, set line height between 1.0 and 1.2 and tighten letter spacing slightly (around -0.01em to -0.02em); in all capitals, loosen it instead (around +0.02em to +0.05em).
Loading
This page loads 400 and 700. Load only the weights you actually use: every extra weight is another file before text can render in it. Self-hosting with next/font, or font-display: swap with the Google Fonts CSS, keeps text visible while it loads.
Epilogue is free on Google Fonts, where you can see every weight and style it comes in.
