\nIn this post I am going to list what I feel are some of the best fonts to have in a designers toolbox and\u00a0– they cover a good diverse range but for the most part they are classic, ageless\u00a0fonts. Some of the fonts listed\u00a0may well already\u00a0be installed with your operating system otherwise\u00a0they\u00a0are available to\u00a0buy (click on the names).<\/p>\n

You might also be interested in my other post,\u00a0Design Inspiration: free fonts<\/a>,\u00a0that lists\u00a0a number of\u00a0recent “new kids on the block” of free and free for personal use font downloads.<\/p>\n

At the very end of this post are some further resources too.<\/p>\n
