Custom Fonts - Creating Your Own Bespoke Font Solution
Fontshop (part of Creative Publishing Solutions Ltd.) offers a comprehensive range of bespoke font
design, custom font development and font production services at reasonable prices.
We can work from any brief and are used to meeting the tightest deadlines. Whether you need a
single custom font or a bespoke font family, our extensive knowledge, design versatility and expertise
ensures that we deliver the highest quality products for any purpose or environment.
You can also have complete exclusivity and ownership giving you the freedom to use your custom font
for any application without worrying about licensing issues. A custom font investment is usually far
more cost effective and has longer term value than paying for a standard font with licensing that can
be restrictive and expensive.
We’re used to working with a broad range of clients (large or small) and many top agencies. High end clients include: KPMG, Shell, Orange, easyJet, Coutts Bank, O2, Visa, RBS, Budweiser, Glenfiddich, BP, Unilever, Channel 4, BT, Reckitt Benckiser, News Corporation, Sainsburys, Royal Mail and many more.
