One license

This license covers the Inkless font files you get directly from Inkless Type, supplied as desktop fonts (TTF). It's a standard license for one person's design work, one website, and one brand's printed and digital materials. It doesn't give exclusive rights.

1. Who may use the font

One license covers one named person (the User). A business may get the license for an employee or contractor. The User may install the font on up to three computers that they personally use. Every additional person who installs the font, or who sets type with it in a shared design tool, needs their own license. Seats may not be pooled or rotated.

A business may permanently replace its User when that person leaves the role, provided the former User uninstalls and deletes the font.

2. What you may do

Subject to these terms, Inkless Type grants the User nonexclusive, worldwide permission, with no time limit unless ended under section 9, to:

• Desktop: install the font and use it to set text in images, documents, presentations, social posts, videos, packaging, signs, and printed materials, for personal, business, and client projects, with no limit on the number of projects, copies, or print runs.
• Logos: use the font's letters in a logo, wordmark, or brand name. You own your logo design. You don't own the font or its letters.
• Web: convert the font to a web format and host it yourself on one website (one domain and its subdomains) that you or one client owns, using CSS @font-face. Subsetting the font to the characters you need is allowed.
• Ebooks and PDFs: embed the font in ebooks and PDFs you distribute, provided it's embedded as a subset or in a form that readers can't extract and install.
• Canva and similar tools: upload the font to a design tool for your own account. If the tool shares uploaded fonts with a team or brand kit, everyone who can use it there needs a license.

No credit to Inkless Type and no royalty is required. For a paid font, this permission begins after successful payment and acceptance of this license.

3. Clients and finished work

You may use the font in work you deliver to clients. Clients may use, print, and publish finished work, such as images, PDFs, printed pieces, logos, and a website you build for them, without their own license.

If a client needs to edit text in the font themselves, on their own computer or in their own design-tool account, they need their own license. Don't hand over the font files with a design. A client website you build counts as that client's one website under section 2, or the client may buy their own license for it.

4. Making things for sale

You may sell finished products that show text set in the font, such as printed goods, merchandise, print-on-demand products, digital prints, ebooks, and social media graphics. You may sell templates that are designed to use the font only if the font files are not included and each buyer is told to license the font themselves.

5. Uses not included

You may not:

• Share, sell, give away, sublicense, or upload the font files, or modified versions of them, for others to download or install, alone or in a bundle, template, kit, plugin, theme, or course.
• Use the font in a mobile or desktop app, video game, website builder, print-on-demand personalization tool, or any product where customers can type their own text in the font. Ask Inkless Type about a license for those.
• Use the font on more than one website, or let other businesses use your web-font files, under this license.
• Rename the font and distribute it as your own, or create a new font from its outlines.
• Use the font's outlines to train or fine-tune an AI system to reproduce them.
• Imply that Inkless Type endorses you, or falsely claim the font was made entirely by you or entirely without AI.

Converting the font to another format for your own permitted use, and subsetting it for the web, are allowed. These restrictions continue to apply to any converted or modified copy.

6. How the font was made, and rights

Every Inkless font is drafted with AI and directed by a person. Its letters began as an AI-generated draft made from a text prompt, and were then redrawn, extended, and spaced under Inkless Type's direction. Each font's page says more about that font.

The font is supplied on a nonexclusive basis. Similar letterforms may exist in other fonts. Inkless Type doesn't promise that the font's design is protected by copyright or design rights in every country, or that any name or logo you make with it can be registered as a trademark. Inkless Type grants only the rights it can grant and doesn't clear any third party's rights for your end use.

7. Files and support

The download contains the font files, a short guide, and this license. Kerning should be on and letter spacing should start at 0. Fonts are tested in Canva. Other apps haven't been tested and may vary.

The version you obtain is covered. Future versions are included only when expressly offered. For a missing, faulty, or misdescribed file, contact hello@inklesstype.com.

8. Purchases and consumer rights

For paid fonts, payment, delivery, and refunds also follow the purchase terms shown before checkout, including the payment provider's terms. Inkless Type offers a 14-day make-it-right or refund window for faulty or misdescribed files. That window doesn't shorten any statutory guarantee, cancellation, refund, or other mandatory right. Nothing in this license limits rights or remedies that can't lawfully be limited. Inkless Type doesn't guarantee sales results, exclusivity, or trademark registrability.

9. Duration and breach

Inkless Type may end this permission for a material breach that you don't correct within 14 days after written notice. Deliberate public redistribution or resale of the font files may result in immediate termination, subject to applicable law. After termination, stop new uses and uninstall and delete the font. Finished work lawfully published or delivered before termination may stay in use.

10. Agreement and contact

This license is provided for review before you accept it at checkout. The version you accept governs the files you obtain. Later changes apply to later purchases unless you separately accept them.

Virginia law governs, subject to mandatory protections that apply where you live. An unenforceable provision doesn't affect the remaining provisions to the extent allowed by law. This license and the applicable purchase terms form the agreement for use of the font.
