What it does
Pangram Pangram publishes retail typefaces, a Font Starter Pack and examples of fonts in use. Its free-to-try files include selected styles with complete character sets for personal projects. Commercial use needs a paid licence, with different durations for companies and individual designers.
Choose Try for Free to request selected styles by email. Pangram Pangram allows those files in personal portfolios, school projects, pitches and other noncommercial personal work. They include complete character sets, so accents and other supported characters can be checked before buying additional styles.
Commercial coverage is split into Print, Web, App, Logo and Social uses. Company licences last one year and must be renewed to continue using the fonts. Individual and freelancer licences have an indefinite duration for the specified use; a company’s work does not become personal use because a freelancer makes it.
Font purchases include OTF and TTF desktop files plus WOFF and WOFF2 web formats. The licence chosen still determines where those files may be used.
