Font Use

When we are creating designs for classes, I most often use DaFont.com to search for different fonts. I also use Adobe fonts, especially when making something for a web class, because it translates easier. I like looking at DaFont.com because there are so many different styles to match what aesthetic you are going for in a design. You do need to be careful using that website, though, because some fonts are only available for personal use. Since we are just making designs for a class, we can use those personal use fonts, but if I were making a design for a client, I would want to make sure that the font I was using is 100% free. Adobe Fonts are free for commercial use with a Creative Cloud subscription. It is also essential to save the fonts you downloaded so that you will always have those fonts and do not have to search for them again when opening a past project. When our computers were reimaged at the beginning of this semester, I opened a past project from last year and realized I was missing a font. Luckily, it was a very recognizable font, and I was able to download it again. It was fixed in my project after I downloaded it.
