Where can you use Garamond Font?
Typical uses include books, print, formal documents. Test it at the sizes you actually plan to publish: display styles lose detail in small interface text, and text styles can look flat in a large headline.
Before you use it commercially, open the licence that comes with the file. Free download does not always mean free commercial use, and web embedding is sometimes licensed separately. Our font licensing guide explains the common licence types in plain language.
