IM Fell English

Igino Marini · 2010 · OFL-1.1

Igino Marini digitised the types Bishop John Fell bought for Oxford University Press in the 1670s, and he did not clean them up. The letters are uneven, the baseline is not quite true and the impression varies from glyph to glyph, because that is what the surviving printed pages actually look like. It is a face for when the roughness is the point; set beside a modern serif it will look broken, which is the correct reaction.

Use IM Fell English 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 im-fell-english.woff2, the same one the WOFF2 button above gives you.

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

body {
  font-family: 'IM Fell English', serif;
}

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/im-fell-english.css">

Then use it in your CSS:

body {
  font-family: 'IM Fell English', serif;
}

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

Questions

Is IM Fell English free for commercial use?
Yes. IM Fell English 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 IM Fell English in a logo?
Yes. The licence covers the font software, not the artwork you make with it, so a logo set in IM Fell English belongs to you — including if you later register it as a trademark. You do not need permission and you do not owe anything to Igino Marini. What the licence stops you doing is redistributing the font file itself as a product.
How do I install IM Fell English?
Download the zip and unzip it. On a Mac, select the 2 font files 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 IM Fell English support Turkish?
Yes. IM Fell English 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 IM Fell English support?
IM Fell English covers Latin, Latin Extended and Turkish, across 372 glyphs. Anything outside those alphabets is not included — the character map further up this page shows exactly what you get.
Is there a smaller, Latin-only version of IM Fell English?
Yes — the "WOFF2 · Latin only" button on this page. It is 63 KB against 95 KB for the complete file, 34% smaller, with every weight the family has still in it. It covers Latin and Latin Extended, which is everything a page in English, Turkish or a western European language sets — Türkçe included, since ı, İ, ğ and ş all live in that range. Take the complete file instead if you set Cyrillic, Greek or any alphabet outside Latin.
Where can I download IM Fell English as WOFF2?
From the WOFF2 button on this page — the file is im-fell-english.woff2, and it is about 95 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.
