We Are Designers

Have far to many fonts? Can’t keep track if you really need that font or not? Then it’s time for you to invest in a font management program. For years Extensis has been making some of the industry leading software for just this. The latest incarnation of their font management software is called Suitcase Fusion but now it looks as though they are getting ready to release a major update, Suitcase Fusion 2.

As designers we all like “Free” and we all like fonts, and ordering Adobe’s Font Folio is a little out of most of our price range. So isn’t it nice when we can find Free Fonts to help keep our pocket books a little fuller.

Urban Fonts and DaFont both have a large selection of Free Fonts to choose from without running into duplicates. Both sites offer a variety of fonts organized into different catagories along with samples of what the fonts look like.

If you have any recommendations for Free Font sites go ahead and comment about it.

Because we all need to do our part in bringing bad design to justice. If you haven’t had the chance to check out Design Police then there is no better time then right now. You can download a copy of the 5 page PDF for free and start pointing out all the flawed designs that your peers, co-workers or complete strangers have made.
Never fear, Design Police is here to protect and serve the world over.
