Frutiger Neue Font Free Download
Hi there, I've been asked to do some titles in Frutiger font, which I don't have in my Fonts folder. I get lots of links when I google 'free fonts Mac', but none of them are actually free (I think the 'free' must mean that I'm free to google the subject, and the sellers are free to try to fool me into buying from them). If I have to pay, I will, and I'd rather be safe than sorry. So I'm wondering how best to go about this (have never before needed a font that didn't come with my Mac): do all 'non-standard' Mac fonts cost money? Are there good, legal sites where one can download a font like Frutiger? If I do have to pay for it, where's the best place to buy it from?
Thanks, malch. You won't find a free legal copy of Frutiger. The typeface name is under copyright, and needs to be licenced to be sold legally. Confusingly, Frutiger is sold in a variety of packages and from a handful of foundries, so you want to do some shopping around to find a version that has all the weights that you need.
You will discover that the Linotype version of Frutiger is significantly more expensive than the Adobe release. Fontshop and MyFonts are two online stores that will happily sell you Frutiger.
This is useful if you have a lot of cameras to view or configure and can be unselected later when you’re done if necessary. In Internet Explorer 10 and 11 there is an additional option to set Compatibility View to be used for all websites. If you have only one or a few cameras you should enable Compatibility View on a site-by-site basis. Download activex plugin for internet explorer.
Click to expand.While many free fonts are crap; not all are - you need to look and see if they will work for what you want to do. At any rate, the OP asked for alternatives and they are out there. As for being professional, part of that is treating your client's money like your own. My clients appreciate it when I offer lower cost alternatives that meet their needs; and sometimes we need to pay for something when free options don't meet their needs. A good professional knows when to, and when not to, cut costs to deliver a quality outcome at a reasonable price.
The OP said the client specifically asked for Frutiger. That means you buy Frutiger. Maybe you don't notice subtle differences between fonts that look similar but many other people do notice. How many typical clients know the actual name of the font they want?

That tells me they'll be able to tell you cheated. What if the company asks for your files and they find out you've used another font?

PLUS- while Cartogothic looks very close and you could probably get away with it, it only has standard and bold and italics of those. Funny enough, I just bought four weights of Frutiger because that's my client's corporate standard font.
I wouldn't think of trying to fake them out. And I'm not charging them for it so it's not impacting their project price whatsoever.
If I couldn't use Frutiger for anybody else because it's so unique to them, maybe I would charge them but I can use the font all I want for other things. It's the cost of doing business, just like all the other assets I buy in anticipation of using on future projects.
