Pinyon Script

Nicole Fally · Sorkin Type Co · 2011 · OFL-1.1

A round hand with swashes that are considerably showier than the letters they hang off, which gives it a frontier-saloon quality underneath the formality. The slant is steep and the contrast severe, so the thin strokes go first at small sizes and the whole thing turns to lace. It is by the same hand as Rye, which is a stranger pairing than it sounds until you notice both are American nineteenth century in different registers.

Use Pinyon Script 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, Vietnamese. The file is pinyon-script.woff2, the same one the WOFF2 button above gives you.

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

body {
  font-family: 'Pinyon Script', cursive;
}

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/pinyon-script.css">

Then use it in your CSS:

body {
  font-family: 'Pinyon Script', cursive;
}

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

Questions

Is Pinyon Script free for commercial use?
Yes. Pinyon Script 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 Pinyon Script in a logo?
Yes. The licence covers the font software, not the artwork you make with it, so a logo set in Pinyon Script belongs to you — including if you later register it as a trademark. You do not need permission and you do not owe anything to Nicole Fally. What the licence stops you doing is redistributing the font file itself as a product.
How do I install Pinyon Script?
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 Pinyon Script support Turkish?
Yes. Pinyon Script 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 Pinyon Script support?
Pinyon Script covers Latin, Latin Extended, Turkish and Vietnamese, across 836 glyphs. Anything outside those alphabets is not included — the character map further up this page shows exactly what you get.
Where can I download Pinyon Script as WOFF2?
From the WOFF2 button on this page — the file is pinyon-script.woff2, and it is about 57 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.

Pinyon Script license

OFL-1.1

You may use, modify and redistribute this font, including in commercial work. You may not sell the font file on its own, and any modified version must be released under the same license and under a different name.
