Hebrew Fonts for Websites

Load a family that actually contains Hebrew glyphs. A Latin-only file will silently fall back to the browser default and the two scripts will not match.

Heebo, Assistant, IBM Plex Sans Hebrew, and Miriam Libre are built for UI weights and mixed-direction copy. Almoni is the common Israeli commercial equivalent if you can licence it.

Test bold, medium, and the smallest mobile size. Many Hebrew files have no true italic: browsers will fake a slant that collides with nikud.

Pair the Hebrew face with its intended Latin companion (Plex with Plex, Noto with Noto, Heebo with Roboto) so weight and x-height agree.

Keep display faces (Karantina, Secular One, Suez One, Handjet) on headlines only. They fail in forms, tables, and body articles.

Self-host or use Google Fonts according to the licence. System fonts such as David, Miriam, and Arial Hebrew are not a webfont licence.
