08 / Questions

Questions about DSEG7 Modern

Answered from its licence, Fontsource and each app’s own font list

Is DSEG7 Modern free for commercial use?

Yes. DSEG7 Modern is under the SIL Open Font License 1.1 , which allows commercial use at any scale, logos, websites, apps and PDFs included; a changed version may not be called “DSEG”.

How do I download and install DSEG7 Modern?

FontKind doesn’t host DSEG7 Modern’s files: it isn’t on Google Fonts, and comes free from Fontsource , a library of open fonts. On its page there, choose Get font, then Download complete family, and unzip the file: it holds desktop fonts for every weight and style. On Windows or a Mac, double-click each font file and choose Install. For a website, npm install @fontsource/dseg7-modern adds it in one line.

Is DSEG7 Modern in Microsoft Word?

Not until you install it: DSEG7 Modern isn’t one of Microsoft 365’s cloud fonts. Installed, it is in Word’s font menu and PowerPoint’s. On Windows, its weights beyond Regular and Bold show as fonts of their own, such as DSEG7 Modern Light. For someone who hasn’t installed it, turn on Embed fonts in the file in Word’s save options: its licence allows that.

Is DSEG7 Modern in Google Docs?

Probably not: the More fonts list in Docs draws on Google Fonts, and DSEG7 Modern comes from Fontsource. Docs can’t add a font of your own, so set it in an app on your computer, such as Word, instead.

Is DSEG7 Modern in Figma?

Not built in: Figma includes Google Fonts, and DSEG7 Modern comes from Fontsource. Install it on your computer and Figma lists it.

How many weights does DSEG7 Modern have?

DSEG7 Modern comes in three weights: Light (300), Regular (400) and Bold (700), each with an italic.
