free fonts

'You can buld a massive digital library downloading free fonts from dedicated websites. . . . Many of these free fonts serve well enough for the occasional word or two, but when the letters are fitted together into words and sentences, their shortcomings become quickly apparent'characters of uncertain legibility, lack of harmony between the letters. It then becomes clear how much skill and feeling is required to design a really good typeface.'
