Arkandis Digital Foundry

Arkandis Digital Foundry is a website to facilitate the availability of "a large collection of high quality fonts for publication and open source programs". It was founded in 1998 by designer Hirwen Harendal.

Harendal has made this collection of fonts available to serve three purposes:

• It provides fonts to allow for artistic creativity in publications for those who cannot afford the cost of commercial font families.
• It helps protect the works of professional font foundries and designers from the illegal use of their fonts in publications or for commercial use by providing these free alternatives.
• Making fonts is "a great pleasure" for him.

The typefaces are released under the GNU General Public License version 2 with a special font exception.
