Questions about Cabinet Grotesk
Answered from its licence, Fontshare and each app’s own font list
Is Cabinet Grotesk free for commercial use?
Yes. Cabinet Grotesk is under the ITF Free Font License 2.0 , which allows commercial use, logos you can register as trademarks and your own websites and apps. But its files may not be changed, not even subset, nor passed outside your organisation.
How do I download and install Cabinet Grotesk?
FontKind doesn’t host Cabinet Grotesk’s files: it comes free from Fontshare , Indian Type Foundry’s library, and only from there. Download it from its page there and unzip the file. On Windows or a Mac, double-click each font file and choose Install, then restart any app that was open.
Is Cabinet Grotesk in Microsoft Word?
Not until you install it: Cabinet Grotesk isn’t one of Microsoft 365’s cloud fonts. Installed, it is in Word’s font menu and PowerPoint’s.

For someone who hasn’t installed it, save it as a PDF, which carries the font with it.
Is Cabinet Grotesk in Google Docs?
Probably not: the More fonts list in Docs draws on Google Fonts, and Cabinet Grotesk comes from Fontshare. Docs can’t add a font of your own, so set it in an app on your computer, such as Word, instead.
