I have been looking for some calligraphic typefaces recently and there are some nice script fonts here that I haven’t seen before. I have a few of them already but this is by far the best compilation of fonts I’ve seen around! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Eric! I always love updating my type library, it can get boring just using the same old fonts. It would be great to see some of these in your upcoming tutorials
.
I love the Otari Font!!!
Yeah that’s one of my favorite free fonts, really stylish.
too bad a bunch of them that i really like don’t appear to be free.
Apologies for this Marc, that was an oversight on our part in editing this article. We hope that you enjoy all of the free fonts in this article though, and perhaps even consider purchasing any of the premium ones.
Oversight? How can it be oversight? This was for the web hits. That’s horrible that you wouldn’t change the title after this is pointed out. THAT is the horrible job of editing. I look forward to quality posts on the collection of sites. Your response was only that, a response. You did nothing the right the situation. Horrible.
Hi Nicholas, it genuinely was an oversight. The title has been changed, thanks for bringing it back to my attention.
I found some that were new to me! Thank you! Fonts are addictive, eh? LOL Thank you for a great compilation! It was a ‘productive’ read and I enjoyed it! I found some I may try to use soon.

Thanks Su, I agree it can definitely be addictive expanding your font library!
Finally! I found the font that I was looking for centuries now – Jellyka Vampire Street. I’m almost done with the design of my tattoo. Great compilation, Tom! Cheers!
You’re using that font for part of a tattoo? Awesome! Post the finished thing up here
.
Thank you very much.You are just mind reader!!!I have been just in a search for such beautiful fonts.
Glad you like these Mushfica.
I am such a big fan of typography and really love to look at fonts such as this even if I can’t use them for every day use! Looking at these examples I in particular like St Ryde, Antrokas Demo, Discipuli Britannica and Horizon. There isn’t one I don’t like I just picked these ones out in particular. People who think that typography is just text, they are right to a certain extent, but typography is a lot more than that, it really can be beautiful and is truly under appreciated sometimes.
Yeah, typography is definitely under appreciated, although it certainly isn’t just text, more the application of text (which is easier said than done right).
Belluccia, not Bellucia. And it isn’t free!
Beautyful fonts thank
Very good collection. Well done. That’s been handy!!
AMAZING COLLECTION! Thanks so much!
great fonts collection….Thank you for sharing this.. cheers
love these! – thank you for compiling the list… dang how i wish that tinka babe font didn’t cost so much though

Absolutely wonderful, really excellent fonts! I’m an artist and designer and have found great inspiration here.
Thanks heaps!! This list is great. I was tearing my hair out trying to find something nice and now I have.
Much appreciated
