: How to know whether a font is paid or free? This question is an extension of my previous question. I had used Chevin Light and Chevin Bold in my project after downloading it from a website.

This question is an extension of my previous question. I had used Chevin Light and Chevin Bold in my project after downloading it from a website. Later I came to know that they are licensed fonts and I have to pay to use those fonts.

I referred fontshop.com to verify that they are paid or not. The problem is that this website is giving an enhanced name for the fonts for example:

I am using Chevin Light and fontshop calls it Chevin Pro Light
I am using Chevin Bold and fontshop calls it Chevin Pro Bold.

I need to know is there a difference between them or are they same. Altogether I need to know an authentic source where I can know whether a font is free that is open source or paid(licensed).

And if I have to buy a license, then could someone more experienced in the Fonts stuff guide me where should I buy the license.

How to know: look it up on the internet. Find the font foundry (the designers), visit their website, and check the font licences and availability/pricing options.

In your case, a quick google search reveals the font foundry is G-Type. Their website is here: www.g-type.com
Where to buy: there are several websites offering licences, and you can even buy it direct from G-Type.
