FontSpace is a popular website for finding free fonts. They currently have over 100,000 fonts, and thousands of designers that share their creations on the website.

It's easy to find popular, new, and random fonts that are free to download, and you can even do it without having to log in to a user account or fill out any information at all.

How to Find Fonts at FontSpace

Visit their home page to see their handpicked list of the best fonts for this month. Right away, you can enter any text you want to see how it looks with all of those fonts. The text color can also be changed in this preview.

To find more options, use the search bar or the menu at the top of the website. Fonts is how you see the newly added fonts as well as popular fonts, random ones, fonts that can be used for commercial purposes, and more.

Styles is another neat browsing method since this is where all the categories are. Trendy, decorative, fun, extreme, older, holidays, famous, and pictorial are just a few examples of the 10,000+ that are available.

Similar is the Collections menu that groups fonts by topic, such as wedding fonts, Star Wars fonts, elegant fonts, and more.

Downloading the Fonts Is a Breeze

It shouldn't take more than 10 seconds to download these free fonts. When you find one you want, select the download button to the right of the font. Or, if you've selected it to reach its description page, scroll down and choose FREE DOWNLOAD.

For some fonts, you might have to right-click the download button and choose the save option.

These fonts download in the ZIP format, so to actually use them, you have to extract the font file from the archive. You should be able to simply open the archive to see the font files, but if that doesn't work, use a free file extractor.

If you use the plus sign next to a font to add it to a collection, you can build up several fonts and download all of them at once. This makes it much easier to get lots of fonts at once rather than downloading and extracting each font archive individually.

More Information on FontSpace

You can optionally sign up for a free account at FontSpace if you want to upload your own fonts and create custom collections of your favorites.

On each font's download page is information on how you can use the font, like whether or not it's only available for personal use. It's here that you can also contact the designer and donate to the designer.

FontSpace has an RSS feed (get it here) that you can subscribe to if you want to be alerted when new fonts are added to the site.

There's also the FontSpace blog that you may be interested in, which sometimes updates with font-related tips and news.
