07 / Swap

Swap Tilt Prism without a jump

Running text within 3% of the width, x-height within 5%

None of the fonts that look most like Tilt Prism sets text to its width and x-height: a swap would move lines.

Fallback while it loads

Until Tilt Prism loads, this sets Arial in its place at 112.5% of its size, so running text keeps Tilt Prism’s width and lines keep their height: nothing moves when it arrives.

Questions about Tilt Prism

Is Tilt Prism free for commercial use?

Yes. Tilt Prism 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 Tilt Prism?

FontKind doesn’t host Tilt Prism’s files: it comes free from Google Fonts . On its page there, choose Get font, then Download all, and unzip the file. It holds one variable file for every style, 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 Tilt Prism in Microsoft Word?

Not until you install it: Tilt Prism 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.
