This font is free for personal use (see below).

Excite is a neo-grotesque typeface named after an x-height that's as tall as you can get without compromising the distinction between upper and lower case, helping to make it extremely readable both in print and on screen.

Excite is modern and spacious, has short ascenders and descenders, and an airiness augmented by using both horizontal and vertical endings of open characters like C, S and 3.

Unusually for a neo-grotesque, Excite has a clean, contemporary, single storey lowercase A. Other distinctive features include a hexagonal dot/period, and the dog-leg tail of the Q. To avoid confusion between similar characters, Excite uses features like horizontal bars on the capital i and a curved tail on the lowercase L.

The Excite family is released in Regular and Bold weights, each with a respective Italic (Oblique).

FREEBIES (Unlicensed)
K-Type Freebies are free for personal use and do not require a licence.
However, Freebies used for Commercial and Entrepreneurial purposes need to be licensed at the same rates as Pay Fonts.  Commercial and Enterprise Licences for Freebies are available at www.k-type.com

COMMERCIAL LICENCE (Normal Licence)
Purchasing a K-Type font grants you non-exclusive rights to use the font commercially in print, on film, online, and embedded in documents.
The software may be stored on up to five workstations and output devices.
You cannot legally give the font to others or install it on their machines (with the exception of co-workers and your service bureau).
To place any K-Type font within other media will require an additional Enterprise Licence.

ENTERPRISE LICENCE (Extended Licence)
For Entrepreneurial use on an unlimited number of workstations and output devices, and where a font file is incorporated into a software product, each K-Type font will require an Enterprise Licence.
An Enterprise Licence is indefinite, but not exclusive.

CUSTOM FONTS
Commissioning a K-Type Custom Font grants you ownership upon payment – sole rights to use the font autonomously, exclusively and indefinitely.  Custom Fonts are available from keith@k-type.com

Fonts are supplied "as is". Every effort is made to ensure that the files will behave properly, and whilst mistakes and omissions are corrected cheerfully and quickly, K-Type will not be liable for losses incurred by software failure.

K-TYPE

K-Type fonts are inexpensive, quality typefaces supplied in Truetype (Windows and Mac varieties), OpenType, and Mac Postscript file formats.  

K-Type aims to provide a more personal service than most foundries, and we are increasingly widening the scope of our fonts. In addition to the full set of standard Latin characters, a large selection of accented characters are included. Polish and Lithuanian accented characters are already included in many K-Type fonts. 

Please email keith@k-type.com if you require additional characters. There is usually no charge to existing customers for adding accented characters. Other additions, such as company logos or signatures will be chargeable.

Our recent Ivan Zemtsov font features both Latin and Cyrillic alphabets, being based on the lettering of Russian mailartist Ivan Zemtsov. The Cyrillics also include Mari language characters that were specially requested.
