Fallback while it loads
Until Scoutie Sans loads, this sets Arial in its place at 104.1% of its size, so running text keeps Scoutie Sans’s width and lines keep their height: nothing moves when it arrives.

Questions about Scoutie Sans
Answered from its licence, Google Fonts and each app’s own font list
Is Scoutie Sans free for commercial use?
Yes. Scoutie Sans 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 Scoutie Sans?
FontKind doesn’t host Scoutie Sans’s files: it comes free from Google Fonts . On its page there, choose Get font, then Download all, and unzip the file. It holds two variable files, one for the uprights and one for the italics, and a static folder with a file per style: install one set or the other, not both. On Windows or a Mac, double-click each font file and choose Install, then restart any app that was open, Word included.
Is Scoutie Sans in Microsoft Word?
Not until you install it: Scoutie Sans 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 Scoutie Sans ExtraLight and Scoutie Sans ExtraBold. For someone who hasn’t installed it, turn on Embed fonts in the file in Word’s save options: its licence allows that.
How many weights does Scoutie Sans have?
Scoutie Sans comes in seven weights, from ExtraLight (200) to ExtraBold (800), each with an italic. It is a variable font: it takes any weight from 200 to 800.
Who designed Scoutie Sans?
Scoutie Sans was designed by Tyler Finck. It has been on Google Fonts since August 2026. Tyler Finck also made League Gothic, Epilogue, League Spartan and nine more on FontKind.
