hello :)
I am looking at buying some fonts online for where I work (just the main ones - (helvetica, frutiger, DIN etc). Was just wondering if anyone knew the cheapest place to buy them, am aware that there is font.com, fontshop.com etc. But is there one online that is guarenteed to be the cheapest that anyone knows of??

Pricing is usually pretty standard from what I have seen, when comparing larger places like FontShop or Myfonts.
If you were looking into Frutiger I would maybe check out the Linotype site and go for Frutiger Next, the true italics are really quite nice.

The only way to get any sizable discount per font is to get a collection. Do a search for "font collection" - we listed a few about 2 weeks ago.

May be useful, some discussion on some well put together and more affordable type packages.
