Design & features
Tiejili is a spiky display typeface based on Fontworks' Japanese Reggae One, expanded and adjusted with OpenType features for Simplified Chinese use.
It fully supports the 8,105-character General Standard table and all 6,763 GB/T 2312 hanzi—over 10,000 characters—adds pinyin letters and Zhuyin, and offers centred and slanted punctuation variants, full-width quotes and punctuation ligatures.
Best uses
If you are working on live-stream overlays or article header images, Tiejili is an easy pick, and it is also worth trying for short-video cover titles. On app store screenshots, keep the headline to 6–10 characters per line so it reads in thumbnails.

Fonts on this site that pair well with Tiejili:
- Kingsoft Cloud Font (金山云技术体) — a neutral face that stays clear at small sizes, ideal for body and supporting text
