Cutive Mono

Vernon Adams · 2012 · OFL-1.1

Cutive Mono is the fixed-width member of Vernon Adams’s Cutive family, and it comes from the typewriter faces of the 1960s office rather than from the machines themselves — cleaner than Special Elite, lighter than Courier Prime, with slab serifs that stay thin. That lightness is its character and its limit: it sets a beautiful line of a dozen words and turns to grey mush across a paragraph. One weight, no italic.

Use Cutive Mono on the web

Self-hosted

You serve the file yourself. Nothing depends on this site staying up, and you get the whole character set — all Latin, Latin Extended, Türkçe. The file is cutive-mono.woff2, the same one the WOFF2 button above gives you.

@font-face {
  font-family: 'Cutive Mono';
  /* Take the WOFF2 button above, put cutive-mono.woff2 wherever
     you serve static files from, and point this at it. */
  src: url('/fonts/cutive-mono.woff2') format('woff2');
  font-weight: 400;
  font-style: normal;
  font-display: swap;
}

body {
  font-family: 'Cutive Mono', monospace;
}

Hosted by us

One line, nothing to upload. Put this in your <head>:

<link rel="preconnect" href="https://thatsmyfont.com">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://thatsmyfont.com/fontfiles/cutive-mono.css">

Then use it in your CSS:

body {
  font-family: 'Cutive Mono', monospace;
}

One thing to know: the file we host is cut down to Latin characters so pages load quickly. Cutive Mono also covers Türkçe, and for those you need the download and the self-hosted route.

Questions

Is Cutive Mono free for commercial use?
Yes. Cutive Mono is released under the SIL Open Font License 1.1, which allows commercial use with no fee and no attribution requirement. You can use it in client work, in products you sell, on the web and in print. The one thing you may not do is sell the font file on its own. The licence is inside the download.
Can I use Cutive Mono in a logo?
Yes. The licence covers the font software, not the artwork you make with it, so a logo set in Cutive Mono belongs to you — including if you later register it as a trademark. You do not need permission and you do not owe anything to Vernon Adams. What the licence stops you doing is redistributing the font file itself as a product.
How do I install Cutive Mono?
Download the zip and unzip it. On a Mac, select the 1 font file inside and open them, then press Install Font. On Windows, select them, right-click and choose Install. Restart any application that was already open before it will show up.
Does Cutive Mono support Turkish?
Yes. Cutive Mono includes the characters Türkçe needs that plain Latin does not — the dotless ı, the dotted İ, and ğ, ş, ü, ö and ç in both cases. This was checked against the font file itself, not assumed from the fact that it covers Latin.
What languages does Cutive Mono support?
Cutive Mono covers Latin, Latin Extended and Turkish, across 452 glyphs. Anything outside those alphabets is not included — the character map further up this page shows exactly what you get.
Where can I download Cutive Mono as WOFF2?
From the WOFF2 button on this page — the file is cutive-mono.woff2, and it is about 30 KB. It is the complete font repacked for the web rather than a cut-down copy: the same glyphs, the same spacing and the same hinting as the .ttf in the download, roughly 60% smaller. Every browser still receiving updates reads WOFF2, so it is the only web format most sites need. Google Fonts does not offer this file for download at all — it serves WOFF2 from its own servers and gives you .ttf if you ask for the family.
