Ask HN: Has anyone ever made money selling a font?
I had a novel idea for one and was hoping someone would have some tips!
- lutusp 14y agoMicrosoft has/had a font that was offered to support their Office apps named "Arial Unicode MS", that was sold, not given away: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arial_Unicode_MS http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arial_Unicode_MS But in the present circumstances, it would be difficult to protect a font against casual copying, not because of larcenous intent, but simply because fonts are no longer thought of as private property. It's a perception problem.
