I created a test file and previewed the Noto fonts in action. They look fine on mobile, which is not too surprising, since they are based on the Droid fonts, which were designed for mobile devices. On the desktop, Noto Sans looks fine, but Noto Serif looks a little too large. As I was looking over the sans-serif fonts, I settled on Noto Sans, because it put bars on the capital I and generally looked good. It is also part of the Noto series, which has been designed to support more languages than any other font. I thought it would be nice to use matching serif and sans-serif fonts, and Noto Serif is a good font in many respects. It also includes a real italic. The Average font came with only one style, and I was using the Kurale font to handle its italics, since it's a more italic looking font that otherwise resembles Average. When it comes to Chinese characters, Noto Serif looks better than Average, though I still like how Average+Kurale looks on the desktop, and I still like how Volkhov looks on mobile. I'll go with Noto Serif for now and continue looking at other fonts.
