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.

CAL Bodoni Ferrara 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.

CAL Bodoni Ferrara Desktop 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.

CAL Bodoni Ferrara 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, eNewspaper, or interactive PDF.

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.

CAL Bodoni Ferrara 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.

Bodoni Ferrara™

Fashionable, Luxury Heritage: The Original Bodoni Ferrara

Sculpted from hi-res photos and scans of Bodoni's original Ferrara Font—his 1818 Manuale Tipografico and 1768 specimens. It has never before been available.

This cut of Bodoni specially selected by Dave Lawrence from rare book specimens. Part of the California Type Foundry Origin Series.

3 Display Fonts in One!! And 6+ style mixes.

Bodoni's 1st Draft - Transitional Serif

Bodoni was often inspired by French type designs.

His first draft of Ferrara was inspired by Pierre Simon Fournier. But Bodoni added his own Italian sensibilities.

Bododni’s first, transitional style can pair with humanist sans, and transitional fonts.

Bodoni's Rework - Modern Serif

Later, Bodoni reworked Ferrara to match the later neo-classic style or modern serif of Firmin Didot¹.

Bodoni’s modern style can pair with geometric sans, grotesque sans, neo-grotesque sans, gothic sans, copperplate script, .

Informal On™ - Informal Mode by CAL Type Foundry

This can pair with “infant” fonts. Geometric sans, and other sans or serifs with one-storied a’s.

+ Bodoni’s Tivoli a for another option!

Works great with Fournier¹ fonts and grotesques, since the terminals will match.

Font Pairing Guide

This font includes a 78 page Ferrara Pairing Guide.

This book shows you 131 pairings with text fonts. 47 pairings with subheader fonts!

We want to help you get more out of your font collection.

Design Features

• Subtle forward angle (0.5-1.5°) makes Ferrara more lively and engaging than most Bodoni or Didot fonts.

• Round curves make this font feel letter-pressed.

• Bodoni's original tall x-height and slightly condensed proportions: great for headlines, where space is at a premium.

• Better uppercase. Uppercase punctuation for design apps.

• Proportional oldstyle and lining figures, both modern style and transitional numbers. Every pair of numbers is kerned for display sizes: no unsightly gaps!

• Multiple special symbols for whenever you need a design to pop, including 3 of Bodoni’s amazing ampersands.

Language Features

Latin standard for western European and other languages.

+Advanced support for: German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, and French.

Special, uppercase umlauts for titles! Compare to metal Bauer¹ Bodoni!

Special context kerning for French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, and French, to allow better better words like L'Angelique & “¿Nosotros?”. This kerning gets rid of unsightly gaps between “¿ and other combinations.
