Font License Checker — Know Before You Use

Using the wrong font license can expose you and your clients to legal liability. The Font License Checker instantly verifies whether a Google Font is cleared for personal use, commercial projects, web embedding, app development, print and broadcast — before you commit to it in your design.

Font licensing is more complex than most designers realize. A font that's free for personal use may require a commercial license for client work. A web font license may not cover app embedding. A desktop license may not permit PDF embedding. Our checker surfaces these distinctions clearly.

What Font Licenses Cover

Most Google Fonts are licensed under the SIL Open Font License (OFL) which permits commercial use, web embedding and modification. However terms vary by foundry and some fonts on the platform carry different restrictions. Always verify before using in client deliverables.

The Font License Checker covers personal use, commercial use, web font embedding, desktop application use, mobile app embedding, print and broadcast licensing — giving designers complete clarity before starting any project.
