Typotheque can’t release fonts to users who haven’t agreed to the Typotheque EULA and bought a licence. We understand that it is difficult to make a decision as to whether a given typeface is suitable for your particular needs, which is why we offer several ways to preview and test our fonts, both in print and on screen.
You can test all our fonts online using your own text. On the font’s display page, just select ‘My text...’ and enter your text in the adjacent field.
Switch the image font sample to Webfonts - so you can print them on your laser printer. You can edit the text sample.
You can also generate a low resolution PDF file (300 dpi) using your own text in PDF Tester, or generate a high resolution PDF in the Font Combinator.
You can view Typotheque fonts specially designed for reading on screen in the Webfont specimen.
If you would like to get a good idea of how our fonts function in print, you can request a free type specimen. This may take several weeks however, because we only send specimens four or five times a year.
You can buy a single style of the font, test it yourself, then upgrade to the full package that you need. We will deduct the price of the single style from the price of the full package. Simply log in to your account, go to My Fonts, and click on the Upgrade button.
If none of the above options suit your needs, we can also send you a custom PDF with a test setting of Typotheque fonts. Please send us your InDesign or Illustrator files with your text, specified sizes and the list of fonts youʼd like to try. We will set the provided sample in our fonts and send you the PDF.
In some special cases, for qualified clients (usually newspaper or magazine designers), we provide a test license.
The process begins by contacting Typotheque to discuss your project. We usually engage with our partners in order to understand the scope of the project, and then suggest various font choices and offer consultation on implementation of Typotheque fonts to help you get the most of of them.
