How to Choose a Service


There is no “right” answer when it comes to choosing a web font service.
Selecting the proper service usually depends on what you or your client
need. The following questions might help assess your needs:



  • How important is font selection? Are there specific fonts you need?

  • How important is font quality to you and your clients?

  • Is iPhone and iPad (Mobile Safari) support important?
