Lost Type Co-op

What Lost Type Co-op is

Lost Type Co-op is a collaborative digital type foundry founded in 2011. Its library contains more than 50 typefaces by contributors from around the world, and the foundry says font-sale funds go directly to the respective designers. Buyers can choose a pay-what-you-want Personal Use License or commercial licensing. The listed 1–5 User Commercial License is illustrated by Prospectus at $99 USD; additional licensing is available up to 100 users, and customers seeking coverage beyond that are invited to contact Lost Type. Commercial licensing covers uses including logos, advertising, printed goods, websites, software, and e-books, and all commercial licenses include rights to use a font on one website. Font downloads are provided in .otf or .ttf formats compatible with Windows and Mac, with webfonts in some packages. The catalog highlights distinct typeface details: Calafia includes alternate caps, natural word-ending forms, and support for more than 100 languages, while Tofino is designed for screens and has nine weights with companion italics. Licenses are perpetual; nonprofit licensing is considered case by case. Pricing starts at $10.
