About Altara
Altara earned its place here for one reason: it is a straight answer to beauty branding, and straight answers are rarer in this font catalogue than you would think. The save count is still small at 2, so read this as our opinion and not a consensus. It is BILLI's work. Unreviewed so far — read that as untested rather than as a verdict.
The obvious job for it is beauty font, and obvious is right here — the file was built around that and it shows. Look at the face at body-text size before you look at it big. Most serif disappointments happen at eleven point, not at forty-eight. Open it big before you commit. At thumbnail size every font on this shelf looks equally good, which is the problem with thumbnails.
Search for altara, boutique font, branding font and branding typeface and this is the file those words land on; they are all the same font, filed under whichever phrase you happened to type. The searches that bring people to this shelf are serif fonts and script and serif font combinations — this one sits in the middle of that group rather than off to the side of it. People after this usually search serif too, and the shelf is sorted so those all land in the same place. You will find it among the serif fonts, sorted next to everything that does roughly the same job.

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.
