Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose the right font for a project?
Start with the mood the project needs: serifs suggest tradition and elegance, clean sans-serifs feel modern, and scripts add personality. Match the font to the audience, prioritize readability at the sizes you will actually use, and test it in your real layout before committing.
What is font pairing, and how do I do it well?
Font pairing is combining two or more typefaces so headings and body text complement each other. A classic approach pairs a distinctive heading font with a simple, readable body font — for example a serif heading with a sans-serif body. Limit yourself to two or three families and create contrast through weight and size rather than adding more fonts.
Which free fonts are safest for commercial client work?
Fonts under the SIL Open Font License are the safest free choice, and nearly everything on Google Fonts carries that license, permitting commercial use, embedding and modification. Font Squirrel also pre-vets its listings for commercial use. Avoid "free for personal use only" fonts in client work unless you buy the commercial license.
How many different fonts should I use in one design?
Two or three font families is the practical maximum for most projects: one for headings, one for body text, and optionally one accent for special cases. More than that usually makes a design look chaotic and unprofessional rather than creative.
