What is a Font License?
After the purchase, you automatically acquire a single-user licence. As with any other software, fonts are licensed on a per-user basis, so if more than one user needs to work with the fonts, you need to buy a multiple-user licence. But unlike most software licences, our font licence can be extended to include additional users at a fraction of the cost of another single-user licence.
Types of Licenses and Agreement
desktop

A desktop license allows you to download a font and install it on your computer and use it in any desktop application that contains a font menu, such as Word or Photoshop. You may create and print documents using the font and use it in static images. The price of a desktop license depends upon two important factors–the number of styles licensed, and the number of users the fonts will be distributed to. When you purchase a desktop font license, the font will be provided to you in OpenType (OTF) format.

Web

A web license allows you to use the font on your website as live text via the standard @font-face CSS rule. We offer two types of web licenses: hosted and self-hosted. With a hosted license, you reference a CSS resource link in the body of your HTML and we serve the fonts to your site from our content-delivery network. With a self-hosted license, you download the web font files from Type Network and host them on your servers. Our 30-day free trial gives you access to our hosted service.

ePub

An ePub license is for using fonts in publications such as books, magazines, and other periodicals that are viewed on Kindles, iPads, and other eReaders. An ePub license is for static content, rather than dynamic content that the user interacts with; for dynamic content, an App license is required.

App

An app license allows you to embed your fonts in a mobile application developed for phones, tablets, and similar devices. This license is appropriate if the fonts will be downloaded onto the end user’s device.

other

Additional licensing options, including Broadcast, Video Game, Enterprise, and Testing licenses are available upon request. If you have any questions about font licensing or can’t find a license to fit your needs, please contact us at alter@altertype.co
