FAQ

Is it possible to test the typefaces before making a purchase?
Indeed! We provide free trial versions for all our fonts that you can download. For a more comprehensive testing experience, we also offer the Only-designers® licence starting at just €5, which includes the full font family, complete character sets, and all font file formats.

I have used your typefaces in a project, can I share it with you?
Absolutely, we’d love to see how our fonts are being used. Feel free to tag us on Instagram or send us an email with your project. We appreciate your support!

 

How many devices can I install the fonts on?
Easy: you can install our fonts on as many devices as you need. All our licences allow font installation on an unlimited number of devices within your organisation.

Can I use your fonts in my portfolio?
If you’ve purchased our Only-designers® licence, feel free to use our fonts in your offline portfolio (excluding web use). However, please note that trial fonts cannot be used for any commercial projects or portfolios.

Can I use your fonts for logo design?
Certainly! A logo is a commercial wordmark so you will need a commercial licence (All-inclusive® licence). You don’t need to purchase the full family; just buy the specific style you need.

Can I modify Arillatype’s fonts?
I’m sorry, but no, you cannot modify our fonts. This includes not modifying, adapting, translating, reverse engineering, or attempting to discover the source code. It also means you must not create derivative works of the fonts or engage any third party to do so.

 

What licences does Arillatype offer?
We offer two main types of licences: the All-inclusive® (commercial, for companies) and the Only-designers® (non-commercial, for design studios). The All-inclusive® licence covers every device, every use, every font file format, third-parties use, perpetual duration... Everything! The licence price is based on the number of employees within the licensee’s organisation. The Only-designers® licence, on the other hand, is exclusively for designers, studios, or agencies. For an ultra reduced price you get the full fonts on every font file format for your presentations and pitches.

What uses does the All-inclusive® licence cover?
The All-inclusive® licence includes every use: unlimited internal use (desktop, web, app, broadcast...); unlimited external use (third-parties, contractors, agencies...); multiple font file formats for use across all media; use worldwide & perpetual duration. For more details, refer to the End User License Agreement (EULA).

Who holds the All-inclusive® licence (commercial)?
The licensee for the All-inclusive® licence (commercial) is the organisation commissioning the work, not the agency or designer managing the design process. If you are an agency or a designer, a commercial licence (All-inclusive®) is required only when working on your behalf, such as designing your own identity.

Who should make the licence purchase — the licensee or the agency/designer?
If you are an agency or a designer, you have the flexibility to purchase the licence on behalf of your client. During the checkout, you can specify the licensee’s details. Alternatively, you can prepare the shopping cart and share the link with your client for them to proceed with the checkout. If the licence is for your own use, you can, of course, make the purchase on your own behalf.

I am not the licensee, but I need to use your fonts for my client. What can I do?
That’s not a problem! If your client holds an All-inclusive® licence, talk to your client. Our licence allows sharing font copies with third parties, such as design agencies, studios, or other providers. It’s important to note that the third party can only use the font on behalf of the licensee.

Do I need an All-inclusive® licence (commercial licence) to send proposals to my client?
No, you don’t need a commercial licence for proposals. You can use our Only-desingers® licence or the free trial fonts for pitches, competitions, and presentations within your company or client’s presentations.

As a designer or agency, what kind of licence do I need?
Arillatype.Studio® offers two options for designers and agencies. You can choose an Only-designers® licence (full versions, all font file formats) or you can opt for free trials with limited versions in .otf files. In both cases, the fonts can be used for self-initiated, personal projects, preview and evaluation purposes, pitches and competitions, presentations within your company or client’s presentations to showcase the fonts’ potential use.

If you’re an agency or a designer, you only need a commercial licence (All-inclusive®) if you’re working on your own behalf, such as designing your own identity.

What do personal or self-initiated projects mean?
It means that you can use the fonts for non-commercial nature stuff. For example (but not limited to): personal offline portfolio, self-initiated non-commercial projects or personal social media.

How long do licences last?
Good news: forever! Our licence system is a one-off fee. There are no recurring payments. You pay the licence cost when you purchase the font and that’s it. You got the rights to use it whenever you want.

As a licence holder, is the font mine?
No, sorry. When you purchase a font from Arillatype, you are acquiring the rights to use the font according to the licence. The copyright remains with its original designer.

How does the licence cost work?
We’ve simplified our commercial licensing to just one option: the All-inclusive® licence. The cost is solely based on the size of the licensing entity. This means you don’t need to worry about the number of devices on which the font will be installed or the specific usage details — it’s a straightforward process.

What does the concept of company size mean?
This concept means the total amount of staff within the company including temporary staff. Not only those workers that will use the font but all the staff, from the top to the bottom of the organization.

If the company has multiple offices, you should select the number of employees working for the company across all offices.

I already have a licence, do I need to update it if my company size increases?
The increase in the size of our clients is great news — congratulations on the growth! In terms of licensing, if you provided an accurate company size at the time of purchase, there’s no need to update or upgrade your licence. It remains valid, even with changes in your company’s size.

Could I ask for a modification in one of your fonts?
Of course! Get in contact with us via [email protected] and tell us what you need. We can modify a few characters and features in order to tailor one of our typefaces for your brand.

Do you do font extensions or design other scripts?
Absolutely, we can expand any of our typefaces with additional weights, styles, subfamilies, and writing systems (such as Arabic, Hebrew, Cyrillic, Thai, among others). If you have specific needs, feel free to get in touch with us and share your requirements via [email protected]

Could I commision a custom typeface?
Naturally! Please get in touch with us at [email protected] and let us know what you need. We can create a bespoke and exclusive typeface tailored to your company, perfectly suited to meet all your needs.

How much does a bespoke typeface cost?
To provide an accurate estimate and answer this question, we would need to know more about the project you have in mind, the styles and scripts you need, and what kind of design you are thinking about. Please, email us at [email protected] to discuss this further.

 

Do you offer discounts for students?
If you are a student, we created the Only-designer® licence specifically for you. Full font versions for a super reduced price. Perfect for your academic projects and your portfolio.
