Christo Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 Hi, I am looking for the name of the font in our logo, we down loaded it free a while ago. But I have forgotten the name, I want to find the font again to redownload it, can someone lead me in the right direction? Link to comment
Solution MissNobody Posted September 21, 2023 Solution Share Posted September 21, 2023 Looks like Clarity. 2 Link to comment
Ralf Herrmann Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 By the way: please turn on the OpenType features when you use the font. Looks much better with a tt ligature. 3 Link to comment

Christo Posted February 7 Author Share Posted February 7 Hallo again, regarding the clarity free font above, is there any way to make it more readable, say I want to write "curated", a person can not even read it the u and the r are unreadable. Any help will be so appreciated. thank you very much. Link to comment
Bjørn Edvard Torbo Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 The trial (non-commercial) version of this font doesn't include any alternate characters (nor ligatures). Maybe the commercial full version does, I don't know. 1 Link to comment

If it doesn't, you can always convert it to vector and alter that vector, but that would not be a solution if you want to use it to display larger amount of text. Another option is to pick a different - but similar - font that is more readable. 1 Link to comment

MissNobody Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 I agree of course, but Creative Market specifically allows to create logos and logotypes, just not font modification for the purpose of altering the font. So in this case you're allowed to convert it to vector and modify. 1 Link to comment

Thank you all very much for the help, I will try to convert it to vector as the last resort, I am not so clued up on all the fonts which ones are different but similar and readable? Link to comment
Bjørn Edvard Torbo Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 Just remember that if “The Cottage Life” has any kind of revenue, you are in violation of the EULA for Clarity Script if you use the “free” (trial/demo) version of it (as that by definition constitutes “commercial use”) in your logo. 😊👍 Link to comment
Christo Posted February 8 Author Share Posted February 8 Thank you for letting me know, is there a similar font that I can use commercially that is free or do you have to pay for them? Link to comment
Christo Posted February 8 Author Share Posted February 8 On our budget we would like to go for a free commercial font similar to clarity free is there anything out there? Link to comment
Bjørn Edvard Torbo Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 There are an abundance of both “free” and paid fonts out there, in all shapes and styles imaginable, and it doesn’t have to be all that expensive either if you go with a paid font. Clarity Script is on Creative Market and would set you back $16 for a desktop license. You could probably spend hours just wading through all the fonts in the Script category alone on that Webshop. Creative Fabrica specializes in catering for the crafters out there, so you would find even more there. They frequently give away large bundles of fonts complete with commercial use licenses too, and I’ve seen a lot of script typefaces included in those packages. Just sign up for their newsletter and wait for it to chime in your inbox. Now, if you have a real business, complete with customers, competitors, partners and the whole shebang, you have to consider several things. First, your customers will have an expectation from your business image that needs to be met. Second, you would probably want to stand out as superior compared with your competitors (better quality, more elegant, more trustworthy and so on). Your partners would look for that in their partners too. One way to work towards all this, is to polish that business image until your fingers bleed, and since your logo is your face to the world, it should shine the brightest. I can guarantee you that you won’t succeed with that with a free font from DaFont in your luggage. You’d probably need some professional help to really make it look exceptional, but choosing a professional, well made typeface that can’t be snubbed for free by any kid with a computer is a great start. If it’s just for the logo, it could even be hand drawn for superior uniqueness. Just my twenty cents. 😉👍 Link to comment
