There was I time when I was crazy for fonts. I would collect and pore over the typeface catalogs from Adobe, Monotype, ITC, and Emigre and dream of the day when I would own every font in the world.
Nowadays, with everyone and their uncle (or aunt) creating fonts I’ve given up on my plans of world font domination. There’s also the fact that owning every commercially-available font would be prohibitively expensive and having zillions of fonts loaded on my computer would cause Adobe apps to take eight hours to open (Microsoft Word could take up to three weeks to launch).
But, for those of you still clinging to your font fetishes, here are a couple of sites to enable your addiction:
Fawnt.com
Fawnt is a font resource for designers, developers, and anyone that appreciates the web's highest quality fonts
dafont.com
Welcome. Here you can download fonts to use in your documents, create titles or logos.
I’ve perused both sites and have resisted the urge to download all the free fonts. I can just look at them and appreciate them. Yeah.
Well, maybe I’ll just try one.
