Free Font Sites

Fonts are one of the most important aspects of the work of designers, and a lot of man-hours are spent searching for just the right font for a particular project. Sometimes the designer will be fortunate enough to find a free font for the job, which will inevitably keep the price down for the client. Other times only a premium font will do.
Here we have selected 20 of the best sites offering free fonts and 10 of the best sites offering premium fonts, including a couple of independent type foundries.
