Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use these free fonts for commercial projects?
It depends on the license of each font. "Free to download" does not automatically mean "free for commercial use." Check the license file or readme included with the download — look for terms like "commercial use allowed" or the SIL Open Font License (OFL). When in doubt, contact the font designer before using a font in client work or products.
Where is the safest place to download free fonts?
Google Fonts and Font Squirrel are the safest starting points, since their libraries are cleared for commercial use and carry clear license information. Community sites like DaFont and Fontspace have huge selections but you must check the license of each individual font before using it commercially.
How do I install a font after downloading it?
Unzip the downloaded file, then on Windows right-click the TTF or OTF file and choose "Install." On a Mac, double-click the font file to preview it in Font Book, then click "Install Font." The font will then be available in Photoshop, Illustrator, and other design programs.
How do I choose the right font for a logo versus a poster?
For logos, prioritize readability and scalability — the font must stay clear at very small sizes. For posters, you can use bolder, more expressive display fonts since they are seen at large sizes. Keep any single design to two or three fonts at most, and test the fonts at the actual size they will be used.
