Introduced by Nimish Magre et al. in Typography-MNIST (TMNIST): an MNIST-Style Image Dataset to Categorize Glyphs and Font-Styles12 Feb 2022 archive 2025-07-28

Typography-MNIST is a dataset comprising of 565,292 MNIST-style grayscale images representing 1,812 unique glyphs in varied styles of 1,355 Google-fonts. The glyph-list contains common characters from over 150 of the modern and historical language scripts with symbol sets, and each font-style represents varying subsets of the total unique glyphs. The dataset has been developed as part of the Cognitive Type project which aims to develop eye-tracking tools for real-time mapping of type to cognition and to create computational tools that allow for the easy design of typefaces with cognitive properties such as readability.
