The only real difference between these two fonts is that there is more white space above and below each letter in Heebo. In other words, the line height of Roboto is a lot smaller than Heebo. Inknut Antiqua is one of the most unique fonts on this list and seems to be really loved by typography enthusiasts.
It was created to be used as a typeface in books and long form literature. This amazing free font reminds me of the many calligraphy fonts that I tried to learn back in the day.
If you decide to use this classic serif font on a graphic, try to only use it as a header font. The thick strokes and embellishments of each letter makes it a bit difficult to read for longer than a few sentences. Pair it with a no nonsense font like Montserrat or Rubik to bring attention to the amazing stroke of each letter.
Karla is an extremely quirky font when you take the time to look at each letter. I would recommend using this unique font on any graphic that you want to add a little bit of spunk or eccentricity to. Although at first glance it looks like you could use it on professional graphics, the nonuniform spacing of each letter might make it feel a little out of place on a report or document.
According to the creator of Lato, it was originally designed for a large client who decided to go in a different direction. So they decided to release it to the public for free. I love the combination of the geometric capital letters and more rounded lowercase letters. In my experience Lato is mainly used as a body font, mainly in ebooks , infographics and other digital graphics. This popular sans serif font can be paired with some bold header fonts like Playfair Display, Libre Baskerville or Vollkorn.
Or it can be used with some other similar free fonts like Roboto or Open Sans. Inspired by a font called Baskerville that was created in the s, Libre Baskerville is a classic serif font that has been optimized for the present. The original creator of Baskerville set out to create a serif font that had increased variety between the width of thick and thin strokes in each letter. This can also be seen in the modern interpretation of Baskerville, with this free serif font using many different stroke sizes for each letter.
Because the inspiration for this font is older than America, Libre Baskerville will invoke a classic feeling in any graphic.
Add Lobster to your graphic if you really want to turn some heads. The bouncy strokes of this handwriting font is pretty hard to ignore, no matter where you use it. Like with some other handwriting fonts, each letter is going to look different depending on what letters are used around it. So one letter might look completely different in one word, compared to the others in the same sentence. This approach makes each word feel unique on your graphic and can be used to inject a ton of creativity to a simple header.
I would only use Lobster as a header font because it becomes hard to read after a few words. Pair it with something a little less obnoxious like Open Sans or Raleway for the perfect amount of contrast. Lora is a free serif font that was created by the team at Cyreal about 5 years ago.
It has been updated pretty frequently since that first release as well. As you can see in the example above, each letter features a very interesting serif.
Combined with the variable width of the vertical and horizontal strokes, Lora feels like a modern font that tips its hat to the past. Compared to something like Libre Baskerville, this free font feels a lot more free spirited. Add it to your graphic to add a little bit of classic whimsy.
Like with other stylized serif fonts, I would recommend using Lora as header font and pair it with sans serif body font. One of the most unique features of Merriweather is that instead of using a vertical stress, each letter has a diagonal stress.
Basically, each letter tilts a little to the left, and the thinnest part of the stroke is a little off center. Additionally, the vertical strokes are exactly the same width from top to bottom. Other fonts like EB Garamond vary the stroke width towards the middle and serifs of each letter.
I think that both of these features help Merriweather stand out from the rest of the popular free serif fonts. The unique approach that the designers took make Merriweather feel like a serif font built for the future, instead of the past. Pair it with the free sans serif font Merriweather Sans for a perfect font combination! After many years of using Montserrat, I literally just learned that the creation of the font was funded by a Kickstarter campaign!
How many other fonts have such an interesting origin story? The font is also named after the historic Montserrat neighborhood where the creator of the font, Julieta Ulanovsky, lived at the time.
To create this font, she took a lot of inspiration from the scenes around her in that particular neighborhood. The amazing typography from the early 20th century that she saw on street signs, cafes and more helped set the tone for Montserrat. If you have made it this far in the article, you can probably spot that this is a free sans serif font.
It can easily be paired with Oswald, Roboto or another sans serif font on websites, social media graphics , infographics and more. Created in and updated in , Mulish is an amazingly simple sans serif font that feels very futuristic at the same time. The extended vertical strokes of this free font give each letter a lot of room to breathe without making the font feel too brash. I think this is what makes the font feel like it should be on some computer screen in the year Because of the geometric influences of each letter, you can use Mulish to make your graphic feel very modern or cutting edge.
I would recommend using this free sans serif font as a body font with a slightly bolder header font like Oswald or Poppins. This kinda makes sense, until you see that Neuton is actually a classic sans serif font with Dutch influences.
Not something that looks like it belongs on a NASA mission briefing document. The designer of this free font said that it reminds them a little bit of Times New Roman, which I can see. However, Neuton seems to have a little more style and pizzazz added to each letter. You can see that immediately when looking at the different serifs of each letter.
Some feel very geometric while others flow like a handwritten letter. Neuton can be used as a body or header font in your designs, and scales down to smaller font sizes very well. Some might say it should have been higher, given its versatility and clarity.
A lot of big brands have used it in their marketing or branding including Chase Bank, Mozilla and Virgin. Open Sans also scales down exceptionally well so can be used on social media or mobile devices effectively. It is one of my favorite free sans serif fonts to use because it basically works with every other font that you could use.
Oswald is a sans serif font that was created by Vernon Adams in and updated in to include more font weights. If you just compare it to the last entry on this list, you can immediately see that Oswald is a different type of free sans serif font. The long vertical strokes combined with the narrow letters make the font really stand out on a page or computer screen. In my opinion, this sans serif font walks the line of being bold without smacking you in the face.
I like using Oswald when I want to make a header a bit more striking, without making it extremely wide or overwhelming. For the past 5 years or so, Oxygen has been used all over the Venngage site. We recently updated our brand fonts but this free sans serif font will live in my heart for a long while. Oxygen is another font created by Vernon Adams, who also created Oswald and many other fonts, back in This sans serif font is a bit similar to Oswald but each letter has a lot more room to breathe and each letter is pretty wide in comparison.
I would recommend using Oxygen as either a body or header font in your graphics and documents. Pacifico is a script font that was directly inspired by the surf culture of the s. I like Pacifico because it feels like it came from a different, more relaxed time. Also it really should only be used as a header font, the thick strokes make it pretty difficult to read as a body font. Pair it with a sans serif font like Roboto or Montserrat for a good deal of contrast in your design.
Apparently, as printing technology improved in the 18th century, it became a lot easier to print both thick and thin strokes on the same letter.
That allowed designers to create new variations of serif fonts, which was not really possible with pens or quills of the past. As you can see above, some of the strokes are much thinner than others even on the same letter. When you compare the letters to a similar font like Libre Baskerville, the difference in font weight and strokes is immediately apparent.
I would recommend using this free serif font as a header font because those thin strokes will not really scale down to a body font. Created by the talented team at the Indian Type Foundry in , Poppins is a spectacular free sans serif font. You can immediately see the geometric influences in each stroke and letter of this typeface. Honestly, I really like those small embellishments that each letter has.
These small imperfections help Poppins stand out from some of the other free geometric fonts that you can find online. Out of all the serif fonts that we have looked at on this list, Prata might have some of the most interesting ones. On some letters they are very geometric, others extremely flowy and even a few look like teardrops. The stroke variation that you see on each letter makes this serif font really interesting to look at and will stand out on any graphic.
I would recommend using this free font as a header font on a formal invitation, the cover of an annual report or even on a finance infographic. Pair it with Roboto or Montserrat as the body font and you can create a professional looking graphic in no time. Proza Libre is the open source version of the font Proza, which I should have realized. A lot of the fonts that include Libre in their title are free versions of a popular commercial font.
Some have also been updated or optimized to work better on screens. It includes all-caps letters and lets you use it in both personal and commercial projects for free.
