07 / Swap
Swap Kings without a jump
Running text within 3% of the width, x-height within 5%
None of the fonts that look most like Kings sets text to its width and x-height: a swap would move lines.
Fallback while it loads
Until Kings loads, this sets Arial in its place at 81.3% of its size, so running text keeps Kings’s width and lines keep their height: nothing moves when it arrives.

Is Kings free for commercial use?
Yes. Kings is under the SIL Open Font License 1.1 , which allows commercial use at any scale, logos, websites, apps and PDFs included.
How do I download and install Kings?

Is Kings in Microsoft Word?
Not until you install it: Kings 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, turn on Embed fonts in the file in Word’s save options: its licence allows that.

Is Kings in Figma?
Yes: Kings is in Figma’s font menu, in the browser and the desktop app, with nothing to install.
