Modern free fonts for personal and commercial use
You're free to use these fonts for your personal projects. You can download and install them on your computer and use them in documents that you create with the software of your choice. You can also modify the fonts (e.g., change their color), but you cannot redistribute the modified fonts without our permission.
If you would like to use one of these fonts for commercial purposes, such as in advertisements, on product packaging or labels, or even on an external website owned by a different company (such as a blog or news site), then you need to check if that requires a license from the original website so that they know what's going on and can track how many people are downloading their work!
What are Google Fonts and how to I use them?
Google Fonts is a collection of fonts that can be used for free on websites, apps, and other properties. It's a free service that allows you to use fonts in your website without having to worry about licensing issues, as long as you adhere to the font usage rules outlined by Google.
The service provides searchable access hundreds of unique typefaces from foundries like Monotype and Dalton Maag; and, the majority of them are open source and free for personal or commercial use. You'll find many classic serifs (Eras ITC), sans serifs (Roboto), display faces (Open Sans) and more.
Serif fonts for web designers
Serif fonts are the most common font family, and are suited for body and heading text.
They're also perfect for print, as their serifs help guide your eye through long passages of text with ease. They're recommended to be used for titles and headings, but it's not uncommon to use them in large blocks of text (especially in print).
Serif fonts have been shown to be easier on the eyes than other typefaces, which makes them ideal for reading long documents or textbooks.
Modern and sleek sans serif fonts
