Ask DN: How do you mock up work with fonts you don't own?

    been using that for several years now as well...someone posted it on QBN/Newstoday's 'Useful thread' years ago.... and maaaaan, is it ever useful.... I was doing some mockups for a big telco a few years back...needed their custom font, but realized it would probably take a few days to get it through our contacts there....used that link and had it in seconds....works like a charm....

    • that said, I agree with you 100%....i only use it for mockups etc...as soon as a project goes into production, we purchase all materials like fonts etc.... If i want someone to pay me for MY time and effort, it only makes sense to do the same for others....
