This is a deviation from how you may be used to using Typekit, but it offers designers implementation flexibility both in the short- and long-term.

To preview the fonts, we have live specimens for each weight on our website. For example, here’s Klavika Light and its Italic…

Instead I find that many of the fonts are unusable in Windows browsers, and now the new well-designed fonts cost extra. Hmm.

Well Micheal, not here to defend typekit or anybody but you have to realise that designing typefaces actually takes a huge amount of time.

You should be happy that there are plans that allow you to use hundreds of fonts for a really low price, you have to realise that this is already a luxury. Look at the prices for individual weights of fonts on foundries and you’see how lucky you are that typekit makes such offers.

People have been spoiled because in all the software they license (microsoft, adobe…), the fonts SEEMED to be free, but actually these company spend a lot of money to make typefaces available for their customers, and this allows the type designers to live.

I got it that way. Really a pity it isn’t included in the plans…

It would be much better to have these selected typefaces available under one of the subscription plans rather than have to buy the font, then purchase an additional @font-face license.

Should be fixed now. Oops indeed!

And if you’re interested in using our fonts with Typekit, head on over to our site first and find the webfont or desktop/webfont you’re interested in. Once your purchase is complete, you’ll receive a link to send your fonts to Typekit and, like magic, they’ll show up in your Typekit account. Hope that helps…

Reflects really badly on them and annoys us too.
