The Font User Survey (14 min) by Fontstand

We are interested in learning more about the use of typography in the graphic design industry. How do you use type? How do you license it? And what do you value about it? Help us answer these questions and get a Fontstand font pack!

We’re are launching an independent industry-wide survey for font users. We want to hear about your experiences: What works? What’s confusing or frustrating? What would you change? Your answers will help us decide how licensing works within the Fontstand Cooperative.
