Finding a special font can make even the most mundane sign or flyer extra special. As a lover of fonts, I freely admit spending hours looking through fonts to find just the right one for projects. A font can add emotion, meaning, and feeling to your message. Just think of all the logos you know that use different types of fonts. Pottery Barn conveys a message about its furniture through font. Ben & Jerry's, Charlotte Russe, and Coca-Cola also use font to express something more than just the name of their respective companies. Business cards are the same way. So are wedding invitations. The site I go to for fonts most often is dafont. There you can easily search through categories and almost all are free to download. Font Squirrel is another good site for free fonts.
