FAQ

The short answer is yes, you can! More information regarding the specifics of what is allowed can be found in the licencing section.

I highly recommend checking the specimen PDF of the font you’re interested in. However, below is a list of the glyphs most Tofu fonts include. More about this is detailed in the Glyph Set Standards section.

Tofu fonts aim to support as many languages as possible. Our standard Complete Glyph Set guarantees that 218 Latin-based languages are fully covered. Highly decorative or experimental fonts may have lesser support, though. The full list of supported languages is in the Glyph Set Standards section.

Tofu does not offer refunds since our products are digital. Before purchasing, double check you have selected the correct product and licence.

Of course! You had my curiosity—but now you have my attention. Please reach out to [email protected] with your inquiry so we can discuss additional details.

Alternatively, you may want to use a Tofu typeface but need additional glyphs or custom modifications to fit your project. Typeface expansion is an option too—and likely cheaper than the bespoke alternative.

EULA stands for End User Licence Agreement. It’s a document included with each purchase that details the rights and restrictions on your fonts and what ways you’re allowed to use them. You should always keep a copy of it to refer back to.

OpenType features unlock new ways for you to utilize a typeface. A few of the most common are ligatures (which connect two colliding letters with a solved letterform), small caps (used to set uppercase letters naturally in body copy), fractions (1 1/2 appears as 1 ½), and stylistic sets (which can drastically alter the way an entire typeface looks).

Want to learn more about specific OpenType features? Microsoft has an extensive list available for any typography nerds in need of some light Sunday reading material.

Adobe Illustrator

Illustrator has a dedicated OpenType panel, located under Window > Type > OpenType. If you don’t see all features listed, additional settings can be accessed through the hamburger menu in the top right corner.

Adobe InDesign

InDesign does a good job of hiding the OpenType panel. First, you must go to Window > Type & Tables > Character and open the Character panel. Selecting the hamburger menu in the top right corner (of the Character panel) will expose a few features along with another menu called OpenType that holds the remaining settings.

Affinity Publisher

OpenType support for Affinity Publisher is listed in the Typography panel. Go to Text > Show Typography to view the range of features available in the font.

Microsoft Word

OpenType features can be accessed in Word by selecting the text you want to alter and hitting ⌘+D. Under the Fonts tab, you’ll be able to activate small caps, all caps, superscripts and subscripts. Select the Advanced tab to access more features, such as ligatures, numeral types, contextual alternates, and stylistic sets.

If our intern failed to adequately fill out this FAQ section and you still crave answers, send an email to [email protected] with your inquiry.

The intern’s pay will be docked—not that they were getting paid anyways.

Licencing

The Standard Licence offers a large degree of flexibility and should be sufficient for most people. If your needs are greater, however, an Extended Licence is also offered and can be custom-tailored for your requirements. Connect via email and we can discuss details.

Standard Licence

Glyph Set Standards

The Complete Glyph Set is the standard that every Tofu typeface aims for. Unfortunately, it’s not always possible to include all these glyphs and exact details are listed in the specimen PDF for each typeface. (You can find these specimens on each font’s dedicated web page.)

Below is a list of the included glyphs and 218 Latin-based languages that are fully supported in the Complete Glyph Set:
