It’s choose-your-own-adventure from here. In this guide, I’m going over some of the best free fonts that are similar to or good replacements for some of the most popular pro fonts out there. But sometimes you need to do a lot of research to find them. The truth is: you can find extremely high-quality free fonts. You know what? Those stereotypes are a little out of date. Mention them to many experienced designers, and they’ll complain that free fonts have poor quality, bad kerning, and missing features.
This is not the most popular view among designers, but I’m totally in favor of using free fonts, especially as a beginning designer.īut free fonts get a bad rap.
