In their own words
Font Bros
Font Bros is a storefront for display typefaces used in logos, websites, apps, videos, and other design projects. Its library contains over 44,400 styles, browsable by categories including serif, sans serif, handwritten, script, monograms, and special effects. Fonts are offered in OpenType; TrueType is included when supplied by the foundry, and other or legacy formats can be requested. Font Bros says its OpenType fonts work on Macintosh OS X and Microsoft Windows. Most fonts can be licensed for website embedding with CSS @font-face, with webfont files delivered after ordering. A desktop license allows installation on up to two computers per licensed end user, not for simultaneous use. The EULA permits company logo and professional design work under the relevant license terms. Some specialized embedding, such as in software, eBooks, or broadcast, may require an upgrade; per-order personalized resale products also require an additional license. Free fonts are available, and paid options start at $15 one-time.
