I have been online looking for a font app. There are so many apps, my head is spinning.  

 

All I'm looking for is an additional selection like is offered in Word...but a bit fancier.  

 

I'm hoping someone will have a recommendation to share.

 

TIA,

Demitra

 

PS....I want to make words & phrases to add to scrapbook pages. I can't find stickers for everything I want.  Thanks for any ideas.

I don't know of any apps for fonts, but you can buy software for fonts or buy fonts individually or bundled from many websites, like Linotype, Font Shop, or Creative Market.

There are fonts for sale to sign shops but they are hundred and thousands of dollars.

You don't need a separate app, you just need the font files themselves, you add these font files to the existing ones on your computer. It's been years since I've done it but I found them through google searches and the ones I added were all free to download.

A sign shop and a home computer user are entirely different things. Commercial use and personal use are also different things.

 

Someone who just wants fonts for scrapbooking, flyers, etc., can easily find free or inexpensive fonts online. A commercial license usually costs more, but it's still not that expensive.
