Key Features
Authentic Hand-Drawn Character
Every style in the RD Goodflies family preserves the irregularities and charm of hand lettering. The letterforms feel organic and human, helping brands create a personal connection with their audience.
Versatile Display Options
The Condensed and Extended weights let you control tone and presence. Use the Condensed style for compact labels, vertical signage, or tight compositions. Use the Extended style for bold, dramatic headlines and wide-format graphics.
Expressive Script Companion
The Script complements the display faces with fluid strokes and natural joins. Use it for names, signatures, or accent phrases to enhance a handcrafted look without losing legibility.

Pairing & Design Tips
Build Hierarchy
Combine RD Goodflies Extended for primary headlines with Condensed for secondary headings to create clear visual hierarchy. Use the Script sparingly as an accent to highlight names, taglines, or product descriptors.
Color and Texture
Pair the fonts with muted, earthy palettes and subtle grain textures to reinforce a vintage look. For a contemporary twist, contrast the hand-drawn letterforms with a clean geometric sans for body text.
Spacing and Scale
Allow generous letterspacing at large display sizes to preserve the handcrafted shapes. For condensed lockups, tighten tracking slightly but keep adequate leading to avoid crowding ornamental strokes.
Installation & Compatibility
To install, extract the ZIP and install the OTF files using your operating system or preferred font manager. RD Goodflies works in most professional design apps (Adobe Creative Suite, Affinity, Sketch, Figma). If you plan to use the fonts on the web, request or generate webfont formats (WOFF/WOFF2) from the vendor or via a licensed webfont kit.
Licensing & Support
Review the included license file to confirm permitted uses for desktop, web, and commercial projects. If you need clarification about licensing or file formats, contact the vendor or foundry from which you purchased the fonts. The license typically covers standard commercial use cases; consult the vendor for extended or multi-user licensing requirements.
