Free Fonts

Knowing where free fonts are is good! Having been in the graphic design and print industry you need to know where they are. Why? - because when you get some artwork that was created by a customer who wanted to save themselves graphic design charges and used Microsoft Publisher or Word and did it themselves - they nearly always used some non-standard free font that they found on the net because they thought it looked good. They would then send us the file without including the font and we would have to hunt for it on the net ourselves. Here are the best links.

Note: If you want to supply your artwork to a printer or copy centre PLEASE supply the True Type Font (TTF) files as well! IT saves us SO much time!!!! :)




















BTW There are tons of other free font websites. These are the ones that I have used and found useful, but if you want more then look at these links:
