Fonts

    Web Font Services

    Most type foundries won’t license their typefaces to be used on the web because there is no openly supported closed font file type. Each service seems to have a different take on how to deliver type on the web and how to charge for it. 

    Free versions come with challenges—they may have limited options, or they have horrible hinting and kerning tables, or none at all.
