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.

Telidon Desktop EULA

Company Desktop

Choose a Company Desktop license when fonts need to live where your team actually works: on employee workstations, inside design tools, office apps, brand workflows, and day to day creative workflows. Built for collaborative teams, busier workflows, and brands that need their type to move confidently across the company.

This license allows your employees to create, edit, view, print, and distribute materials, provided the font software itself is not embedded in those assets. It is a good fit for in-house brand projects, presentations, packaging layouts, static graphics, marketing materials, and other company-created assets.

Company Desktop also supports practical document collaboration. Licensed users may create and share non-commercial, non-editable PDFs with embedded fonts. The Company Desktop license is also tiered based on company size, enabling your employees to use fonts collaboratively and in internal DAMs. Commercial eBooks, eMagazines, or other paid electronic documents require a separate Commercial Electronic Document license.

This license is based on your number of employees. You are required to purchase a license tier sufficient to cover your entire organization size and those users must be your employees. You cannot exchange users within the licensing period (non-concurrent).

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.

Telidon 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.

Telidon 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.

Telidon 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

Telidon reconstructs the logic of dot-matrix impact printing rather than using dots as a decorative texture. Its monospaced characters recall the reports, inventories, laboratory results, and continuous-form documents produced by late-20th-century printers. The distinction lies in how the alphabet changes mode.

Expanded characters repeat horizontal impressions instead of stretching a smooth outline. Bold and Heavy styles build density by adding dots, while the italics shift pin positions in half-unit steps. These mechanical changes distinguish Telidon from dot-matrix lettering that simply stretches or slants a single bitmap alphabet.

Telidon is particularly effective when typography needs to appear issued by a machine. Film and television production designers can use it for computer printouts, financial records, laboratory reports, inventory sheets, and dispatch notices generated by period or fictional equipment. Computing and office-technology exhibitions can apply the same printer logic to reconstructed documents, diagrams, captions, and wall graphics.

The association also suits contemporary transportation, logistics, and technical-product design. Railway tickets, flight records, cargo manifests, tracking labels, model numbers, and equipment specifications all benefit from Telidon’s procedural, machine-readable character. At large sizes, its clean circular dots can also suggest LED arrays, flip-dot destination boards, and scoreboard displays without obscuring their impact-printer origin.

Telidon presents the printhead’s instructions with every dot in place. Its companion Telidon Ink records what happens when those instructions encounter a worn ribbon, imperfect paper feed, and repeated handling.
