People pay for fonts? That's crazy talk. Especially if it's a symbol font.



Actually yes they do! I have a few symbol fonts in my library that cost way more than he's asking for the 4 weights.

My personal hesitation isn't due to paying for a symbol font...I'm waiting to see a bit more of the font so I can decide if the style is neutral enough that I'll be able to use it in enough places to make the cost worthwhile.


Why don't you just google the symbol you are looking for and pilfer something from image search, like a normal person?


I don't think it's really paying for 'font' symbols but paying for something that's easily droppable in your HTML using <i> tags. At least that's why I use FontAwesome.
