			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are a lot of free fonts out there on the internet these days &#8211; but tracking down the well-designed ones can be quite the task. Since I&#8217;m such a nice guy, I thought I would round up the top ten free display fonts for you! Top ten in <em>my</em> opinion, of course.</p>
<p>All these fonts are free to download and use. They&#8217;re not all specifically display fonts, but display use is where they shine. Enjoy, share, and <a style="color: #32c7f4; text-decoration: none;" title="Subscribe y'all!" href="http://bit.ly/W6nU8" target="_blank">subscribe to the RSS feed!</a></p>
<p>Here we go!</p>
<h3><a href="http://www.theleagueofmoveabletype.com/fonts/7-league-gothic" target="_blank">LEAGUE GOTHIC</a></h3>
<p><a href="http://www.theleagueofmoveabletype.com/fonts/7-league-gothic"><img class="size-full wp-image-520 aligncenter" title="LeagueGothic" src="http://www.paper-leaf.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/LeagueGothic.png" alt="LeagueGothic" width="400" height="146" /></a></p>
<p>League Gothic is sort of a re-issue of a font that recently became public domain. It&#8217;s gorgeous &amp; versatile &#8211; go pick it up!</p>
<h3><a href="http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/Folk" target="_blank">FOLK</a></h3>
<p><a href="http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/Folk"><img class="size-full wp-image-517 aligncenter" title="Folk" src="http://www.paper-leaf.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Folk.png" alt="Folk" width="400" height="290" /></a></p>
<p>Playful but still well-designed, the Folk font lends itself great to show posters and organic-style design.</p>
<p>Hit the jump for more free display fonts!</p>
<p><span id="more-508"></span></p>
<h3><a href="http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/Komika-Axis " target="_blank">KOMIKA AXIS</a></h3>
<p><a href="http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/Komika-Axis"><img class="size-full wp-image-519 aligncenter" title="Komika" src="http://www.paper-leaf.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Komika.png" alt="Komika" width="400" height="226" /></a></p>
<p>I know I know &#8211; thanks to Comic Sans, everyone hates similar fonts. But Komika Axis is <strong>not</strong> similar; it is a great display font in a handwritten style. It&#8217;s got a touch of comic-bookery, but it looks great if you use it properly.</p>
<h3><a href="http://www.theleagueofmoveabletype.com/fonts/5-blackout" target="_blank">BLACKOUT</a></h3>
<p><a href="http://www.theleagueofmoveabletype.com/fonts/5-blackout"><img class="size-full wp-image-515 aligncenter" title="Blackout" src="http://www.paper-leaf.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Blackout.png" alt="Blackout" width="400" height="178" /></a></p>
<p>Blackout is a perfectly imperfect font. It&#8217;s got a hand-drawn aesthetic and, as you can see, an interesting take on letters with negative space.</p>
<h3><a href="http://www.dafont.com/alte-haas-grotesk.font" target="_blank">ALTE HAAS GROTESK</a></h3>
<p><a href="http://www.dafont.com/alte-haas-grotesk.font"><img class="size-full wp-image-513 aligncenter" title="AlteHassGrotesk" src="http://www.paper-leaf.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/AlteHassGrotesk.png" alt="AlteHassGrotesk" width="403" height="303" /></a></p>
<p>Part the much-beloved Helvetica family, Alte Haas Grotesk is perfect if you want the simplicity and class of Helvetica with a touch of time-worn design.</p>
<h3><a href="http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/Aller" target="_blank">ALLER</a></h3>
<p><a href="http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/Aller"><img class="size-full wp-image-512 aligncenter" title="Aller" src="http://www.paper-leaf.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Aller.png" alt="Aller" width="400" height="289" /></a></p>
<p>You start to wonder how many more serif fonts can come out and still look unique; then Aller comes along. Strong, visually interesting, and unlike any serif font out there.</p>
<h3><a href="http://www.theleagueofmoveabletype.com/fonts/4-chunk" target="_blank">CHUNK FIVE</a></h3>
<p><a href="http://www.theleagueofmoveabletype.com/fonts/4-chunk" target="_blank"><img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; border: 0px initial initial;" title="ChunkFive" src="http://www.paper-leaf.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/ChunkFive.png" alt="ChunkFive" width="400" height="145" /></a></p>
<p>I&#8217;ve <a title="How to Make a Cool Vintage Gig Poster" href="http://www.paper-leaf.com/blog/2009/10/how-to-make-a-cool-vintage-gig-poster/" target="_blank">written about Chunk Five before</a> and <a title="Daniel Moir Show Poster" href="http://www.paper-leaf.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/DMEdmontonPoster_BLOG.jpg" target="_blank">used it in past projects</a>; I absolutely love it for bold, typography-driven designs. Great font.</p>
<h3><a href="http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/Molot" target="_blank">MOLOT</a></h3>
<p><a href="http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/Molot"><img class="size-full wp-image-521 aligncenter" title="Molot" src="http://www.paper-leaf.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Molot.png" alt="Molot" width="400" height="222" /></a></p>
<p>Molot has a touch of futurism to its styling &#8211; I could see it being used for some hipster poster design, or perhaps a throwback 80s party. Those are still cool, right? Guys?</p>
<h3><a href="http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/Bebas" target="_blank">BEBAS</a></h3>
<p><a href="http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/Bebas"><img class="size-full wp-image-514 aligncenter" title="Bebas" src="http://www.paper-leaf.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Bebas.png" alt="Bebas" width="400" height="290" /></a></p>
<p>Bebas is sort of like League Gothic if League Gothic got on a treadmill and laid off the cheeseburgers. Gorgeous font.</p>
<h3><a href="http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/HighlandGothicFLF" target="_blank">HIGHLAND GOTHIC</a></h3>
<p><a href="http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/HighlandGothicFLF"><img class="size-full wp-image-518 aligncenter" title="HighlandGothic" src="http://www.paper-leaf.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/HighlandGothic.png" alt="HighlandGothic" width="400" height="262" /></a></p>
<p>Highland Gothic sort of feels like it belongs on the cover of a spaceship&#8217;s user manual. Can you see it? Or maybe I&#8217;m just really stretching since it&#8217;s the end of the article. Regardless, I like it.<br/><br/></p>
