Social recommendations and mentions

We have tracked the following product recommendations or mentions on various public social media platforms and blogs. They can help you see what people think about MyFonts and what they use it for.
  • Can someone please tell me what this font is called?
    It is safe but I recommend go to MyFonts instead. The reviews say that most customers are generally dissatisfied with fonts.com. Source: 12 months ago
  • Font for cursive Wildcats / RGB or HEX for Lavender
    Not sure on the font. I tried myfonts.com and whatfontis.com, which resulted in some similar fonts, but not an exact match. Source: 12 months ago
  • what are the various fonts on this poster?
    Top and Bottom one is closest to Sign Artist JNL (check myfonts.com). Source: over 1 year ago
  • Need help with font license options
    I'm talking about myfonts.com for example but all pages are similar. Price for fonts for printing looks like a big hidden mystery. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Converting .CFF format to .TTF
    Hi, looking for help. I am interested in buying Lucida Blackletter Regular font from myfonts.com but they sell it only in OpenType CFF format and I need this font in TTF format. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Name of a font library website?
    If yes, it is basically the same as MyFonts or fonts.com because they all belong to Monotype and sell the same set of fonts. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Looking for some NX Fonts
    Myfonts.com will let you drop an image in and shows you the closest matches, but my guess is these are both proprietary fonts. Source: over 1 year ago
  • What font is used in the Smurfs comics for the speech bubbles?
    Amazing advice, thank you! I've come to realize that it's most likely a custom font but I've found a very similar one called Pumpkinseed Medium with the help of myfonts.com! :). Source: over 1 year ago
  • Where to purchase fonts for commercial use?
    In most cases, as long as you have a license for the font on your computer (you didn’t download it from some dodgy piracy site), you’re fine. I see that Snell Roundhand is widely offered as a free download (and probably shouldn't be). If you need to purchase it, the Monotype conglomerate (which includes linotype.com. fonts.com, myfonts.com, etc.) has it for purchase. You would need the desktop license. If you’re...

  • Typeface of the books?
    This may or may not be it: Crypton? I used What the Font on myfonts.com, but the samples were acting buggy for the results for some reason. Source: over 2 years ago
  • Where I can download those missing fonts.
    These are commercial fonts, so you would need to buy a license for them. These are all pretty big fonts, so you can buy them at linotype.com, fontshop.com or myfonts.com. Source: over 2 years ago
  • What process do you typically use to narrow down font choices on a project?
    I'll usually have a good idea as to the general style of font, but there isn't any means that I know of in InDesign or Illustrator to sort them this way. Sometimes I'll use myfonts.com to preview a bunch of options and keep track of what I already have. Often I'll just end up manually going through a bunch of my installed fonts and noting which ones look like a good potential fit. Source: over 2 years ago
  • Obsessed with fonts, want to make another one...
    I just visited myfonts.com for some inspired solutions. Have a look at these, and type into the sample bar "Cheese Landwich in a Lumping Castle". Source: over 2 years ago
  • My poor handwriting. I have had nerve damage in my dominant hand for years.
    Read it no sweat. These attribures are in script fonts. People pay $40 - $800 to be able to type in this style. Don't believe me. Visit myfonts.com and browse script fonts, organise by highest price first. Source: over 2 years ago
  • I'm gonna be making a bunch of these for different brands and post one for each Friday. I feel like the title font feels too plain. Can someone suggest a good font for the title? (possibly a playful one). Other criticism is welcome too .
    Go to myfonts.com and type your title there, find a suitable font and buy it. Source: over 2 years ago
  • I think my handwriting and cursive is pretty average. Any advice? I’m not fond of my upper case cursive F.
    Secondly, you can add your personality to them. It's ornament and this is your chance to really own your handwriting. Search google images and pinterest for inspiring cursive and copperplate alphabets, or even look at some fonts (like on myfonts.com ). Mix and match. (My 'H' originated from a Happy Birthday cake.) Your 'A' 'G' and 'H' are too modest. Have fun spicing it up. Source: over 2 years ago
  • Cooper Black
    Thank you, if I want to buy a cooper black on myfonts.com, which one type of license should I choose to use it on clothes/youtube videos? There are some types like desktop/webfont/app etc. Source: over 2 years ago
  • TPNE Text
    Using myfonts.com the closest font I could find was Vengeance is Mine Body by Comicraft. Source: almost 3 years ago
  • Where is the best place to buy paid fonts?
    Myfonts.com is a good one-stop that carries a lot of foundries' faces. You can catch good sales there sometimes, too. Source: almost 3 years ago
  • On the hunt for a nice Scottish Gaelic typeface
    You could go on to myfonts.com and search with terms like 'insular' and 'uncial' as well as more obvious things like 'Gaelic' or 'Irish', and amongst the old fashioned stuff there are also a few decent modernist takes on the old letterforms which might be a happy medium, such as Hibernica, Irish Penny and Gallos. Just whatever you do don't touch 'American Uncial'. Source: almost 3 years ago
  • Fonts?
    Myfonts.com is an excellent resource for browsing (and buying) fonts. Source: almost 3 years ago
