It's a commercial font, they don't want to make it so anyone can trivially grab it for free. Yes, you could find a site that actually uses the font for real, but it's much less obvious, so it still deters casual copying. You'd think they could at least show a few demos with a cut-down build, but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
- blackoil 3y agoHmm, maybe a demo font with watermark.
- ryanwhitney 3y agoLol, I haven’t seen that tried. One nice strategy these days is having downloadable trial fonts with limited character sets. Get to use it locally as much as you want, until you need a quotation mark or a dash, etc. Works great IMO—wish all foundries did so!
- jackson1442 3y agoI've also seen them flip certain symbols so you still get to experience the full font but it's still fundamentally "broken," for example the slashes might be flipped.
