Can I actually make money selling fonts?

Yes. Indie type designers regularly clear €500-€10K/month, and a breakout display or script family can do far more. Script/handwritten and bold display faces are the highest-volume sellers because Canva users and small brands buy them for branding, packaging, and wedding stationery.

What file formats can I upload?

OTF and TTF (desktop), WOFF and WOFF2 (web), or a single zip containing the whole family plus a licence PDF. AOVANCY's uploader accepts font files and zips directly — buyers download the original files on purchase.

How should I handle font licensing?

Include a short licence PDF in your product (personal vs. commercial, or a single all-use licence to keep it simple). Many indie designers sell one straightforward commercial licence per purchase — fewer support questions, higher conversion. You set the terms; AOVANCY just delivers the files.

What's a typical font price?

Single weight: €9-19. Full family (multiple weights + italics): €29-79. Variable font or large family with webfonts: €49-129. Script/wedding fonts often command a premium because of their branding use-case.

Type design is a real income stream
