High-Logic’s online payments are processed by FastSpring (our authorized eCommerce partner). Depending on your location, VAT/GST/sales tax may apply. Therefore, prices shown below exclude tax unless stated otherwise; any applicable tax will be calculated and added during checkout.
Educational Discounts
We offer attractive discounts for students, teachers, and non-profit organizations. Please contact our sales department for more information about our educational license and non-profit organization program.
Crossgrades
If you’re switching from a competing font editor (e.g., FontLab, Glyphs, or RoboFont) or font manager (e.g., Suitcase), you may qualify for a crossgrade offer. Please contact our sales department and include the name and version of the product you currently use.
Multi-Volume Pricing
Volume discounts are applied automatically at checkout when you purchase multiple licenses.
Upgrade Protection
If you purchase a perpetual license — also called a lifetime license — for FontCreator, MainType, or Scanahand within six months before a new major release, the new major version is included with your purchase at no additional charge. Outside that window, the upgrade-pricing options on the upgrades page apply. Your perpetual license remains valid for the major version you originally purchased, including free patches, fixes, and minor updates within that version. If you are unsure whether your purchase qualifies, or you own an edition that is no longer offered, please contact support.
License Restrictions
A single-user license may be used by one person and activated on up to three devices (for example, a desktop and a laptop). If purchased by an organization, the license must be assigned to one designated natural person.
Upgrades
Existing customers upgrade at a reduced price. All three products offer edition upgrades — for example FontCreator 16 Essentials to Professional — and owners of an earlier major version can upgrade to the current one. See the upgrades page for current prices.
