This post is part of our Ampersand series, a set of blog posts focused on fonts. We’re sponsoring and attending Ampersand 2012, a typography conference based in Brighton.
Are you tired of seeing the same fonts everywhere? We’ve put together a list of fresh and attractive fonts you can use for everything from websites to posters. All the fonts below are free; however not all of them can be used commercially, so please check the specific licence requirements before installing and using.

Hi Jenni,
Great set of fonts to add to any collection.
The link for the first Alex Brush is incorrect, you need to remove the .png from the link.
Thanks for this blog post.
Regards
Phil
Thanks Phil, great spot. I’ve fixed it 🙂
Love the freebies! Thanks 🙂
The link to Alex Brush appears to *not* have been changed – I cannot access the font via the link – it still has .png at the end, which Phil says needs to be removed for it to work.
Hi Chris, you might need to hit refresh.
It was the first time I had visited the page. I just tried refresh and it made no difference. Perhaps you are seeing a local version of the page others cannot?
Hi Chris, I’d changed the image link but not the text one underneath. Should be fine now, thanks!
Thanks! I didn’t realise the image was also a link!
some lovely fonts here. only downloaded only a few but they will make a nice addition to my collection. This is a great freebie guys. well done for something cool and useful at the same time 🙂
Thanks Gaelle!
Thanks Jenni! I really wanted new fonts for my webpage, this place happens to be the ideal I got varietyof font styles! Looking forward to more fonts!
Thanks for the handwriting fonts – they are my favourite.
Especially Alex Brush, but also Great Vibes, Qwigly, Ruthie and Contribute Free.
But I also like Ostrich Sans Bold – its double lines are unusual and striking.
