Tips for serif type

Keep serif fonts readable and license-safe.
  • 01

    Match face to job

    Merriweather and Lora suit body and article text; Libre Baskerville works for classic editorial; Playfair Display shines in large headlines.

  • 02

    Test at real sizes

    Check small body sizes and large titles—serif typefaces can feel different at each scale.

  • 03

    Keep OFL files

    If you redistribute the pack, include the OFL text files from SerifFonts.zip.

  • 04

    Do not sell the fonts alone

    OFL allows project use; selling the font files as a standalone product is not allowed.
