+## Installing the font files
+
+The download includes zip files with a complete set of fonts in four
+common formats: TrueType (ttf), OpenType (otf), WOFF and WOFF2.  It is
+recommended to pick a single format and stick to it. OpenType is the most
+popular choice. Most apps on Windows, Mac and Linux work fine with either
+OpenType or TrueType. For web sites, WOFF2 is the recommended format.
+
+The zip files contain both static and variable fonts. Few desktop
+applications fully support variable fonts as of this writing,
+so you may wish to not install the last file in the zip named
+DINish[slnt,wdth,wght].otf (or .ttf), to avoid confusion.
