Please be sure to review the listing foundry's Desktop license agreement as some restrictions may apply—such as use in logos/trademarks, geographic restrictions (number of locations), and products that will be sold.

Desktop licenses are cumulative. If you require a Desktop license that covers additional users, simply place a new order for the same Desktop package, for the number of additional users.

Barkanon Desktop EULA

Webfonts: for your website

Webfonts allow you to embed the font into a webpage using the @font-face rule, so paragraphs and headings of text can be styled as the webfont. You will be serving the webfont kit for your own site and linking it in the CSS.

Webfonts can be used on a single domain. Agencies responsible for multiple websites, for example web design agencies or hosting providers, may not share a single webfont license across multiple websites.

If the font file itself won't be embedded in the website (for example, when the font is used in a static graphic image such as a logo) you should purchase a Desktop license instead.

Most foundries on MyFonts offer their webfonts with the Annual license model. Click here to Learn more.

Barkanon WebFont EULA

App: for embedding in mobile applications

Select this license type when you are developing an app for iOS, Android, or Windows Phone, and you will be embedding the font file in your mobile application's code.

Barkanon App EULA

Electronic Doc: for embedding in e-text products

You can use an Electronic Doc license to embed the font in an electronic publication such as an eBook, eMagazine, or eNewspaper.

An Electronic Doc license is based on the number of publications in which the font is used. Each issue counts as a separate publication. Regional or format variations don't count as separate publications.

Updated versions of publications that are free to previous customers do not need a new license; otherwise, each new version that is released counts as a separate publication.

For font usage in graphic images shown as the ePub cover, consider a Desktop license instead as most allow for it.

Barkanon Electronic Doc EULA

Digital Ad/Email: for use in HTML5 ads

You can use this type of license to embed fonts into digital ads, such as ads built using HTML5.

We'll supply a kit containing webfonts that can be used within digital ads, such as banner ads. This kit may be shared with third parties who are working on your behalf to produce the ad creatives, however you are wholly responsible for it.

HTML5 ads use webfonts, so why purchase a Digital Ads license rather than a Webfont license?

There are a few reasons, such as the Digital Ads EULA having terms that enable usage in digital ads and on advertising networks.

Digital advertisements also have different usage patterns compared to websites. Most websites generally have consistent pageviews month-to-month whereas advertising impressions can vary wildly month-to-month. Prices reflect this, making it much less expensive to use a Digital Ad license.

If you know the number of impressions the campaign requires, that amount can be ordered before the campaign begins. For campaigns where number impressions is unknown until the end of the campaign, you can true up at the end of each calendar month.

About the family

Barkanon – A Strong, Versatile Serif with Timeless Character

Barkanon is a serif typeface that balances strength and elegance, combining classic influences with a contemporary approach. Its letterforms are structured and confident, with sharp, angular details softened by smooth curves, creating a typeface that feels both assertive and refined.

Designed with versatility in mind, Barkanon comes in six weights, from Light to Black, each with a matching italic. The lighter weights offer a sense of openness and clarity, making them well-suited for body text, while the heavier weights have a bold presence that works beautifully in headlines, branding, and editorial design. The italics add a subtle dynamic contrast, keeping the rhythm natural and fluid.

Barkanon’s proportions are balanced for readability, with carefully spaced letterforms that adapt well to both print and digital environments. It has a strong, grounded feel in display settings—ideal for logos, signage, and packaging—while remaining legible and composed in long-form text. Whether used in bold, expressive compositions or in more restrained typographic layouts, it retains its distinct character without overwhelming the design.

There’s a quiet confidence in Barkanon. It doesn’t rely on ornamentation or excess but instead on the clarity of well-drawn forms and thoughtful details. It’s a typeface that feels at home in many settings, offering designers a reliable and adaptable tool with just enough personality to leave a lasting impression.
