A royalty free solution for the closed caption font requirements mandated by the FCC
Our closed caption fonts provide the best and most affordable typefaces for closed caption display. Unlike a painful per-unit license that renews every few years, we offer a one-time licensing fee for unlimited use across multiple platforms.

Most font suppliers deliver re-packaged fonts that are unsuitable for closed captions. These are the first set of fonts designed specifically for meeting FCC EIA-708B requirements (also known as CEA-708). They are more elegant, more legible, and more consistently designed for television applications than fonts provided by other suppliers and have been tested and refined on a broad range of DTV platforms. The font set also includes optional compact UI fonts, designed specifically for guide information and menu systems where space efficiency and legibility are extremely important.
