What a Simple Font License Should Explain

Licensing

A font license should help people understand what they can do, who is covered, and what needs an additional agreement. It should not require legal training to make an ordinary purchase.

Start with ordinary use

Choose licenses according to the intended use: Desktop, Webfont, Publishing, or App & Platform. Check the scope and quantity for each. Our Font License Terms explain the available options, including Corporate and Education licenses.
