Please read the following guidelines carefully to avoid copyright violations.
Personal Use License (Free)
Unless otherwise stated, all fonts on FontDownloader are free to use for personal, non-commercial purposes.

Commercial Use Requires Proper Licensing
If you plan to use a font in any way that generates revenue or serves a commercial purpose, a commercial license is required. Fonts remain the property of their respective designers, and unauthorised commercial use is a violation of copyright.
Examples of commercial use:
-
Client design work (logos, graphics, websites)
-
Branding and business materials
-
Merchandise for sale (shirts, packaging, prints)
-
Ads (digital or print)
