Introducing the new Fort App

Sync all Hoodzpah fonts—past, present, and future* + all of Fort Foundry’s Fonts

Here’s the thing with fonts:

1. We all want to use nice fonts. Fonts we haven’t seen a million places before. Fonts that are unique, and work well out of the box. Using great fonts is like having great eyebrows. They do the heavy-lifting.
2. Hunting for great fonts is exhausting. Side effects may and do include scroll-induced motion sickness. And the malaise of wondering what it’s all for.
3. Trying to demo fonts before buying is frustrating. Limited character sets on trials. Some foundries not offering any trials at all.
4. Fonts can be pricey. They’re worth it for sure, but they add up, and some clients don’t like to dish out for them.
5. Cheap fonts make you pay the price. Bad kerning and spacing. Limited character sets and language support. Busted vectors and messy finials.
6. Licensing can get murky and come back to haunt you. We all fear we’ll get raided by Monotype in the night for an accidental misunderstanding of the desktop license.

We were thinking with our friends at Fort about all this. And like Belle, we said to ourselves, “there must be something more than this provincial life.” We envisioned a dewy, sun-swept meadow where fonts abound right from your desktop, cost is cushy reasonable, licensing is built-in, and the library only grows in quality and substance. Then Fort made it happen and invited us along for the ride!

Get access to Hoodzpah and Fort‘s full and future font libraries with the Fort App.

400+ fonts for just $99/yr. Plus 6 guaranteed new fonts each year. Exclusive to our shops and the app.

Here’s how the app works. Download it to your Mac (macOS 13.4 Ventura or later), then click “activate all” or selectively sync, and all our fonts are ready to use in your desktop programs.

What about licensing?

A Fort App membership includes font licensing for personal and commercial projects. Logos, editorial designs, merch, packaging, title graphics, ad campaigns.

Try it free for 30 days, then grab the yearly rate for the best deal.

Test drive the app for free here to see how she handles.

Get our newest font Cambridge on the the Fort App.

A yearly Fort membership is cheaper than buying the Cambridge typeface family in full ($250 total) through a traditional license. Plus this font is exclusive to our site and the Fort app!

Cambridge is an elevated, timeless serif typeface inspired by the history and academic vibes around Boston and Cambridge, Massachusetts. From the old engraved headstones of the cemeteries, to the bronze de-bossed plaques marking historical places and legacy institutions.
• Condensed and normal widths
• Italics
• Great for projects where you want to put on airs… where you want a little pomp and circumstance.

Want to buy a traditional license for Cambridge without the app? No worries! We’ll have it for sale on our shop in a few days. Stay tuned.
