Fonts in Templates
Many of the fonts used in our design templates come with the purchase of Photoshop and Illustrator. When a template uses fonts that are not automatically bundled with these programs, you can acquire the font by opening the document inside the template ZIP file called “Images & Fonts.” Inside that document will be a list of URLs where you can obtain the fonts shown in template. The fonts shown in the images on our site are for demonstration purposes only. Please make sure to review the site where you downloaded the font to ensure you are using the font in compliance with its terms of use.
