About Authentic Calligraphy
Authentic Calligraphy is a free calligraphy font by creativeletter.
Try it on social media posts and party invitations; it also holds up on business cards. For body text next to it, a quiet font such as Cormorant Garamond keeps the layout easy to read. Use one calligraphy word as the focal point and keep the rest of the layout simple.
You get one font file in the download (Authentic.otf), covering uppercase, lowercase and numbers.
This free version is for personal use. If you plan to earn money with it (client work, merch, packaging), get the commercial licence from creativeletter.
How to install Authentic Calligraphy
- Download the zip and unzip it.
- On Windows, double-click the font file and press Install.
- On a Mac, open the file and press Install Font.
- Restart Photoshop, Illustrator or Canva desktop so the font shows up.
