In their own words
Type Network
Type Network offers font licensing, downloads, typographic advice, and services for businesses and organizations. Its catalog brings together designers from nearly 100 foundries in 15 countries, and the company says it covers scripts beyond Latin. License options include desktop, web, ePub, app, and server use, with team and enterprise arrangements also described. Desktop fonts can be installed for use in applications such as Microsoft Office/365, Adobe Creative Cloud, Canva, and Figma, subject to licensing exceptions. Web fonts can be served from Type Network’s CDN or hosted on a customer’s own server; self-hosted downloads include WOFF, WOFF2, and EOT formats. Web licenses use a selected pageview allocation, and the company asks customers to upgrade if usage exceeds it by more than 25%. Hosted web fonts have a free 30-day trial, but no files are provided during the trial. Additional services include custom typeface development, font customization, language expansion, variable fonts, logos and lettering, and consulting. Type Network offers help with licensing and font selection, and lists weekday support hours of 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. PST.
