About Antique Hard
Antique Hard is our black fonts pick, and it is a pick rather than a default — we looked at the shelf twice before leaving it on. baletype is the name on the listing. It stands at 5.0 out of 5 across 1 review, and we read the low scores first when there are any. Plenty of people got here before us: 153 of them saved it.
Check the capitals and the spacing between them — display type lives or dies on how a short word in caps sits together. We would use it the way the listing hints — bold fonts — and that is also where we would start if you are trying it for the first time. Spend the minute on the preview at full size — it is where you find out whether black fonts was the description or the aspiration.

How to use this font
- Download the font from Creative Fabrica and unzip it — you normally get OTF and TTF of the same face, plus a licence file.
- Install the OTF if your software gives you the choice: it carries the alternates and ligatures that make a script face look handwritten.
- Restart the app you design in — Canva, Photoshop, Cricut Design Space and Word all read the font list once, at launch.
- Read the licence before a paid job: personal and commercial use are priced apart, and a logo often needs the extended one.
