Newsletter 13-01: celebrating 5 years!
03.04.13 12:00
Amazingly, 5 years has passed since I set up CheapProFonts and started reworking "free" fonts to offer inexpensive multilingual fonts to "foreign" designers on a tight budget. And what a journey it has been so far! In the beginning I only offered single display fonts, lately I have created more and more larger font families - but I have always kept the low prices and high quality. Big thanks to all my collaborators, and you: the supporters of our growing foundry!
In addition to a couple more single fonts and families released since the last newsletter I have also just released font number 200! And is is another cool free font! Download it now and enjoy it! :)

It's been a while since the last newsletter - not that I've not been busy creating fonts, but somehow I have ended up creating more families than single fonts lately (all these can also be purchased for our usual $10 per font, of course). Check them out - one of them is even FREE! :)

Newsletter 11-03: DINfun Pro
18.10.11 12:00
Not a mixed font newsletter this time either, but the first batch of a fun project :) The DINfun Pro fonts are special versions of the classic DIN 1451 Mittelschrift, far removed from the original typeface's serious and no-nonsense roots. I have made them as companions to the classic, with some some very different expressions, complete with a large multilingual character set. Time to spice up that DIN profile! :)

Newsletter 11-02: Familiar Pro
08.06.11 12:00
Not a mixed font newsletter this time, but a presentation of a newly designed 8-face family! :) This family was inspired by a Type Battle over at Typophile: How would you design a font metrically compatible with Helvetica, but better than Arial? The letters have been designed quite close to the german/swiss grotesk tradition, but by using super-elliptical rounds, rounded dots and slightly curved outer diagonals the end result is a friendly looking font family that still looks... familiar.
