If you think you might need a special, extended licence to use my fonts, please get in touch for a confidential chat. I can then tailor a custom licence to suit your precise needs.
The most common requirement I encounter is for an enterprise license. This is a broad licence that provides unrestricted usage to your business, with no limits on numbers of servers, desktops or web visitors.
An enterprise license removes any uncertainty and compliance issues as the company grows and evolves, providing complete flexibility and peace of mind.
License fees are typically based on factors such as the number of font styles needed (eg, Regular, Bold, Italic etc) and the intended usage (web, broadcast, server etc).
Alongside my current library of fonts, I have also been commissioned to design custom typefaces for film studios, design teams, publishers, architects, and educators.
A custom font, designed specifically for your brand or product, enables you to communicate in the precise tone of voice you choose. In addition, a flexible license gives you complete control over the use of your own typeface.
A unique, custom typeface will reinforce your brand and can be cost-effective compared to licensing a set of retail fonts across all your media, in perpetuity.
When discussing your requirements, I can advise on the format and language coverage as well as the technical aspects of creating and deploying your font.
If you’d like to know more about how typefaces are designed and how fonts are made, have a read of the Google Fonts Knowledge article I wrote.
Adapting, modifying or fixing an existing font
Adjusting an existing typeface from my library to better suit your business’s requirements can be a very cost-effective solution.
The adapted typeface would come with a custom licence, arranged to ensure your font can be used across your business without worry. I’ve fixed, expanded and improved fonts for creative agencies, TV studios, coffee producers, finance firms.
If you already have a font that needs fixing or adjusting, contact me.
