Questions about Redaction 35
Answered from its licence, Fontsource and each app’s own font list
Is Redaction 35 free for commercial use?
Yes. Redaction 35 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 Redaction 35?
FontKind doesn’t host Redaction 35’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/redaction-35 adds it in one line.
Is Redaction 35 in Microsoft Word?
Not until you install it: Redaction 35 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 Redaction 35 in Google Docs?
Probably not: the More fonts list in Docs draws on Google Fonts, and Redaction 35 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.
