What it does
Indian Type Foundry designs retail and custom fonts for Indian and Latin scripts. Family listings show styles, designers and supported languages. Paid licences allow ongoing use, with separate coverage for print, websites, apps, ebooks and other media.
Open a family and select Buying Options. Choose the licence types, use +ADD for another type and adjust the relevant quantities. Add to cart opens the purchase route; card or PayPal purchases provide downloads after payment, while bank-transfer orders wait for the funds to arrive.
The person using the font needs the licence. A designer making artwork needs coverage; a client who will also install and use the files needs coverage too. The Service License addresses supplying fonts to third parties such as printers or production agencies.
A standard purchase starts with one user, and additional users can be added later with credit for the amount already paid. Trial files are for testing only. Educational discounts have separate eligibility rules, including restrictions to qualifying Indian institutions, teachers and students.
