Licensing Options

You can use this font in any of the following places. Read the full EULA text for details about each license. If you have a usage in mind that's not covered by these licenses, contact us and we'll see what we can do.

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.

JLS OverKill WebFont EULA

Desktop: for use on a desktop workstation

For the most common uses, both personal and professional, for use in desktop applications with a font menu.

For example:

Install the font on your Mac OS X or Windows system
Use the font within desktop applications such as Microsoft Word, Mac Pages, Adobe InDesign, Adobe Photoshop, etc.
Create and print documents, as well as static images (.jpeg, .tiff, .png)

Desktop licenses are based on the number of users of the fonts. You can change the number of users by clicking the quantity dropdown option on Buying Choices or Cart pages.

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.

About JLS OverKill Font Family

OverKill Bloque was created in 1991 as a banner logo for a gamers fan newsletter, The OVERKILL Casualty Report. As letterforms were built for various headlines, a font took shape. Just for grins I fleshed out an uppercase and numbers and named it Ultra Bold. Much later, when Mike and I were working on our chiseled race pak, Ultra Bold convexed nicely and fit in with the modern sports look of the font pak. Mike is most at fault for the lowercase! No face should be without a lowercase! Since then, OverKill / Ultra-Bold has made its way onto the covers of two comic books and numerable vehicles and signs. In 2008 I decided to make it more useful for the desktop crowd. I brought back the OverKill name and called the first font in the family, OverKill Bloque. All of the faces in the OverKill family are heavy hitters, designed for poster and display applications. Their shapes are extreme, pushing negative spaces to the max. Bloque is forceful and solid, great for logos. It is a strong headline face for comic and manga covers. More geometric and angular, Champion is a sports font. It will be at home on the field or on the court, adorning varsity fund-raising t-shirts or university / professional team logos. Though not quite rustic or antique, Hammer is a slab-serif, a tough hombre with a country flavor. But don't think of it just in terms of Wild West posters and western-wear logos. Hammer will be stiff competition on Ivy League sweatshirts and other sports imprints. OverKill Stencil builds strong logos for construction and industrial products packaging. And what futuristic sci-fi military would be complete without Stencil markings on its massive war machines? And for a matching worn-and-torn look, Grunge Stencil is a distressed font that conveys a sense of decay and erosion so typical of today's culture. Grunge screams punk posters and underground bands and the products of a misspent youth. Don't just overdo, OverKill.
