    Unless you only need one font (no variants)….which is very…..very….improbable….then you need a premium. Otherwise I would give it a 5 stars.

    Use any font is a standard install on all my websites as using the correct font for the brand makes such an important difference to the design. It always works and I hope they keep on keeping it simple and straight forward to use.
