Questions about Teachers
Answered from its licence, Google Fonts and each app’s own font list
Is Teachers free for commercial use?
Yes. Teachers 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 Teachers?
FontKind doesn’t host Teachers’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 Teachers in Microsoft Word?
Not until you install it: Teachers 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 Teachers Medium and Teachers ExtraBold. For someone who hasn’t installed it, turn on Embed fonts in the file in Word’s save options: its licence allows that.
Is Teachers in Google Docs?
Most likely. Search for Teachers under More fonts in the font menu of Docs; added there, it is in Sheets and Slides too.
Is Teachers in Figma?
Yes: Teachers is in Figma’s font menu with all five weights and their italics, in the browser and the desktop app, with nothing to install.
How many weights does Teachers have?
Teachers comes in five weights: Regular (400), Medium (500), SemiBold (600), Bold (700) and ExtraBold (800), each with an italic. It is a variable font: it takes any weight from 400 to 800.
