I am in high school and am the editor of our annual literary magazine and was wondering if it is a lot to ask of a Font Foundry to donate a font for use in the magazine in return for having a description of the font and the company at the end of the magazine. Does anyone think a Foundry would go for it?

Maybe.
Anything in particular?

Send an email over to your font foundry. Probably better then guessing. Worst thing you can get is a no.

Actually, no.
This one time, I heard about this French type designer, who strangled somebody with his feet.
Reason? He mixed one of his fonts with Comic Sans. So, they tend to be violent - watch out kiddo!

Well we have a tight enough budget as it is, and we don't have 300$ to spend of a family of fonts. But, for instance, since OurType just got certified, their font Sansa is around the lines of what we are looking for.
We have around 60 pages of text, in a perfect bound book, with nice artwork as well. And this year since I am editor I really want to stop using fonts like Times New Roman and Arial.
