In their own words

FontSpace

FontSpace is a font directory and download site with more than 170,000 free fonts, including a collection of more than 19,000 fonts marked for commercial use. Visitors can browse by style, collection, popularity, or designer and adjust preview text, size, and foreground color. Download formats include OTF and TTF, and the catalog also lists WOFF and WOFF2. Its free text generator turns typed text into Unicode characters and symbols for copying elsewhere; some websites may display unsupported characters as boxes. FontSpace says each font is added and categorized by a person, then reviewed by a moderator for quality issues and license checks. The individual font license sets permitted use: personal-use licenses generally cover non-profit-making use, while commercial-use licenses address uses where someone may profit. The commercial-use collection is described as available for commercial projects with zero license fees, subject to each font’s license. FontSpace provides installation guidance for Windows, Mac, and Linux, and supports modern browsers including Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Opera, and Edge. Cookies must be enabled to download fonts or register.
