What is this account for? |
---|
Fonts commmunity, in general, are there to answer people's curiosity on fonts seen anywhere. |
KFONTSRC is here to only identify fonts used in Kpop. This account does not distribute font files. |
Kpop Font Accounts exist for editors of fanmade edits, fanmade merch, fanbases, etc. or simply for fans who just like the fonts and may want to use it for personal projects. |
The thing I'm doing has been out there even beyond Kpop. There's Fonts In Use for one, and font communities for the curious folks & enthusiasts. |
Not everything are fonts. Signs that it's NOT A FONT : |
---|
Repeated letters do not look the same. |
The letters are interlocking or the letter spacing look like a perfect fit puzzle. |
If it could be a font, follow these TO REQUEST : |
---|
Please search on Twitter and in the Google Sheet before requesting on Twitter. |
ALLOWED FONT REQUEST | NOT ALLOWED FONT REQUEST |
---|---|
✔️ Any OFFICIAL K-Pop content (album, merch, concert, own show, fanmeet) from any K-Pop artist | ❌ Track list, fan arts / fan edits / fan merch, brand & company logos, broadcasting service & award show logos, endorsement content, anything outside of K-Pop |
✔️ DM your K-Pop font request by sending an HD photo / OFFICIAL post and SPECIFY which word/s to identify the font of. | ❌ UNREASONABLE number of fonts (examples of unreasonable requests : 1) Tracklist Fonts with more than three fonts, 2) K-Pop song / album title with obviously different fonts used for each letter). |
What does (mod) mean? |
---|
Mod means modified. Characters are edited or digitally-manipulated using the base font. |
Some logos or text used in K-Pop look entirely different compared to the base font used because of editing. |
Why is your link not working? |
---|
I do not know the cause but vo.la links have stopped working on my end. |
Old links may expire and stop working as they originally do due to: |
Broken font links : Font publisher removed the font from their shop. |
Broken Instagram links : Designer removed or hid the post from their profille. |
DM or mention me in the replies if this happens and I will try to provide an alternative link. |
How to get this font for FREE? | |

How to download fonts in your tweet? |
---|
System / Default Fonts : Fonts that are already pre-installed on your computer (Apple / Microsoft) |
Just click the link beside the font name and you'll be directed to the font distributor. |
If it's free, you can download it immediately. You'll either get the font file itself (OTF/TTF) or ZIP file that needs to be extracted first before getting the font file. |
If it's paid, you'll have to buy it. But if it says free trial / demo available, you can download it for personal use. Examples of keywords to look out for |
Those links without a direct buy / download option most likely are available upon request by emailing the designer. |

How do you identify fonts? |
---|
What I use : Online identifiers, muscle memory, and luck / gut feeling |
Online Identifiers : What The Font | Font Squirrel | Fontspring | Adobe VS | What Font Is | LikeFont |
Identifying FONTS : Display fonts have distinct features so I remember them whenever I scroll through font sites. Some font sites have a certain vibe so it's also helpful to me. |
How to tell if it's NOT A FONT : Repeated letters do not look the same. The letters are interlocking or the letter spacing look impossible to be done (not majority of fonts have this characteristic). |
What app do you use to edit? |
---|
What I use : Photoshop on laptop |
I cannot answer questions about Canva because I do not use it. |
