UnifrakturCook

j. mach wust · 2010 · OFL-1.1

The other Unifraktur, and much the more usable of the two. Where UnifrakturMaguntia is a strict Fraktur with curling capitals that stop a reader dead, this one is bolder, rounder and considerably more open, and a headline set in it can actually be read at a glance. It ships as a single bold weight, which is honest: a light blackletter is a contradiction and this family does not pretend otherwise. Latin only.

Use UnifrakturCook 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. The file is unifrakturcook.woff2, the same one the WOFF2 button above gives you.

@font-face {
  font-family: 'UnifrakturCook';
  /* Take the WOFF2 button above, put unifrakturcook.woff2 wherever
     you serve static files from, and point this at it. */
  src: url('/fonts/unifrakturcook.woff2') format('woff2');
  font-weight: 700;
  font-style: normal;
  font-display: swap;
}

body {
  font-family: 'UnifrakturCook', sans-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/unifrakturcook.css">

Then use it in your CSS:

body {
  font-family: 'UnifrakturCook', sans-serif;
}

One thing to know: the file we host is cut down to Latin characters so pages load quickly.

Questions

Is UnifrakturCook free for commercial use?
Yes. UnifrakturCook 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 UnifrakturCook in a logo?
Yes. The licence covers the font software, not the artwork you make with it, so a logo set in UnifrakturCook belongs to you — including if you later register it as a trademark. You do not need permission and you do not owe anything to j. mach wust. What the licence stops you doing is redistributing the font file itself as a product.
How do I install UnifrakturCook?
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 UnifrakturCook support Turkish?
No. UnifrakturCook covers Latin, but not the extra characters Türkçe needs — the dotless ı, the dotted İ, and ğ and ş. Text set in it would come out with missing or wrong letters.
What languages does UnifrakturCook support?
UnifrakturCook covers Latin, across 271 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 UnifrakturCook?
Yes — the "WOFF2 · Latin only" button on this page. It is 15 KB against 22 KB for the complete file, 31% 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 UnifrakturCook as WOFF2?
From the WOFF2 button on this page — the file is unifrakturcook.woff2, and it is about 22 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.
