100 Best Free Fonts

The 100 Best Free Fonts for Designers

This collection focuses on those clean and distinctive fonts that will make a professional and highly legible impact on your designs, wether that be on the web or in print. So, there are no overly decorative styles, as we have covered hand-drawn fontsbrush fontssci-fi fontschunky fontsgothic fonts, and all those other creative and quirky fonts we all love, before.
Without delving too much into typeface classification and to also help you find that perfect font you’ve been looking for much quicker, we’ve grouped the most popular categories for you: Serif FontsSans Serif FontsSlab Serif Fonts and Monospaced Fonts.

Free Serif Fonts

Serifs are defined by the small lines (or decorative features) that trail from the edges of each letter and number. As Serif fonts are considered to be easier to read, they’re typically used in print design as the characters are clearer and more distinctive, making it much easier for our brains to process.
Just like Slab Serifs (see further down), there are always exceptions to the rule. Most Serifs will work perfectly well as a title or headline on the web, and some, as you will see by the selection of free Serif fonts below, will even work beautifully as body text, but please do choose your web typography carefully.

Free Sans Serif Fonts

The difference between a Serif and Sans Serif font, is that Sans Serifs do not have those small decorative lines that characterize Serifs.
The Sans Serifs, with their modern, cleaner and simpler appearance, are typically more accessible on the web as they’re much easier to read on screens, regardless of their font or device size. Understandably, Sans Serifs are the most commonly used Google Fonts.

Free Slab Serif Fonts

There are many different sub-categories to serifs, Slab just happens to be the most popular variant. Evolving from the Modern style and at times called square serifs or Egyptian, they’re defined by having a bolder serif and are primarily designed to be used as print headlines and are typically paired with a thinner and lighter font.
But there are many Slab Serifs that will work perfectly well – as you will see by the free font selection below – in a smaller font size and could be easily used as body text.
