What Does Font Foundry Mean?
A font foundry is a resource for finding, purchasing, acquiring and sharing active fonts. These entities are typically websites that distribute the fonts as files intended for the end user to install on their personal computer, which would in turn activate them in their various word-processing applications (assuming they are compatible).
