There Are Still Plenty of Excellent Independent TypeВ Foundries But I guess the type industry just isnвЂ™t that big in comparison. The purchase price was $13 million, which seems shockingly low to me in the days of Facebook purchasing WhatsApp for $19 billion.

And type is the core business of Monotype, so itвЂ™s better that they were purchased by a company that focuses solely on type, rather than a company where type is just a portion of their business (like Adobe). I donвЂ™t know what their financial situation was like. ( Update: Chester Jenkins from Village pointed out to me that Monotype will only own Erik SpiekermannвЂ™s designs-the other fonts in the FontFont library will remain the intellectual property of their creators who signed 10-year publishing contracts with FontFont.)ДЇontShop may very well had valid business reasons for going forward with the sale. But the truth is, FontFont has an excellent library of typefaces and they will still be the same typefaces even if Monotype owns them. Maybe if I was a type designer I would feel differently. I personally donвЂ™t have much of a problem with the acquisition coming from the perspective of someone who purchases typefaces. But really, I think people might be overreactingвЂ¦ My Thoughts on the Acquisition I think the name вЂњMonotypeвЂќ certainly doesnвЂ™t help the situation-it sounds like a corporate monolith that has a monopoly on the type industry. Monopolype is on a mission to acquire all the foundries.
