Updated Collection of Free Fonts
Following on from my previous post, here are a bunch of free typeface resources to explore. A word of caution, some of the typefaces found in the wild are immature at best. Watch out for anything that looks a little too trendy.
Free (or almost free) Font Foundries
- The League of Movable Type (pretty prolific collection of text and display fonts.)
- Lost Type (a pay what you want font foundry – some great fonts for as little as free.)
Free Font Sites
- Font Squirrel (has an absolutely essential @font-face generator to move type onto websites.)
- Open Font Library
- Free Typography
- Free Font Manifesto
- Google Web Fonts (has more fonts than you could ever use, although the quality of some is questionable.)
