Licenses
What open licenses let you do
Every family here ships with an open license — mostly the SIL Open Font License 1.1, plus a few under Apache 2.0 or the Ubuntu Font Licence. In short:
Use it for anything
Personal or commercial work: print, web, apps, video and logos.
Share and bundle it
Embed or redistribute the fonts with your projects; keep the license alongside.
Mind the fine print
OFL fonts can't be sold on their own, and modified versions may need a new name.
A friendly summary, not legal advice. Each family's full license is linked from its page, e.g. Fraunces OFL.txt.
