Fonts and Typography

Fonts and Typography

There might be 26 letters in the ENGLISH language, but there are SO MANY MORE characters in SO MANY MORE LANGUAGES, that fonts become a very important consideration in everything from blogs to academic publications! And what could be better than FREE! Yes, there are countless professionally created fonts for very specific purposes, but sometimes FREE can be just as good.

At ZOHO I have included numerous free and informative sites for a very large selection of FREE FONTS:

Font Squirrel has a nice interface, a wide range of fonts and a searchable database. For instance, just typing in Halloween provided 8 different fonts!

And a recently posted article on the Best Free Fonts for Designers is here.

And Free Foreign Language Fonts is here!

And another Free Foreign Language Fonts is here!

And the Best Multilingual Fonts in 2020 is here!

And they are now both at ZOHO too!

And what would a Bog Blog be without a YouTube video! Stephen Fry is a constant source of language related videos! He is even at TED
