About Ballerina
Ballerina is our 60s font pick, and it is a pick rather than a default — we looked at the shelf twice before leaving it on. The review tab is empty. That is normal here and not a warning, but it does put the preview in charge. The designer behind it is Glyphonic. It sits at 3 saves — too few to call it popular, which is exactly why it is worth a look before everyone else finds it.
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. We would use it the way the listing hints — 70s font — 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 60s font was the description or the aspiration.
The words on the listing are alternates, bold serif, branding and canva, and they are worth reading as a description rather than as tags. Put next to the usual requests here — serif fonts and script and serif font combinations — this one covers the plain version of the job, which is the version people need most often. It is shelved with the rest of the serif fonts, and that is the quickest way to see what else sits in the same register before you settle on this one.

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.
