TAN Daisy Font Free Download

TAN fonts are designed and sold by TanType Co. tmfonts is an independent review site — we’re not affiliated with TanType Co. and don’t host or sell their fonts.

Anyone hunting for a TAN Daisy free download should know up front that TanType Co. has never published a free cut of this flower-dotted retro font. It is a commercial typeface sold through Creative Market, and a single Desktop seat cost $17 when we checked in October 2026. Copies passed around on free font sites are not released by the designer and carry no usage rights.

TAN Daisy free download options, checked

We went through the official TAN Daisy listing and found four paid licences and no demo, trial or personal-use edition. The “trial fonts” mentioned on the page are part of Creative Market’s enterprise sales service, not a sample of this font. October 2026 prices:

• Desktop: $17 per seat
• Webfont: $17, shown discounted to $14.45
• E-pub: $34, shown at $31.45
• App: $136, shown at $133.45

The page also advertises 15% off when you combine licences. For most people making posters, stickers or social graphics, the Desktop licence is the one that matters. It gets you the complete font, including the daisy-shaped dots that the cheap imitations tend to leave out.

The flowers, the slits and the heavy serifs

TanType Co. sums the font up as “a display typeface full of retro power” and “quirky, groovy, and funky”. Our specimens, rendered from the licensed file, show a very heavy display serif with sharp wedge serifs on letters such as T, E, F and Z, and a lot of 1970s swagger in the curves.

Three details define it:

• Hairline cuts. Instead of round, open counters, many letters have a thin white incision. The D has a narrow vertical slit beside its stem, and the a, b, d, e, o and most figures have curved slivers of white cut into the black. From a distance it reads like a carved or stencilled shape.
• Daisy dots. The i and j carry a six-petal flower in place of a dot, and so do the exclamation and question marks. The asterisk is flower-like too.
• Swinging tails. The Q, g and y finish in long, thick curves, and the capital E is drawn as a rounded, epsilon-like shape.

One caution from the specimen: the ampersand is drawn as a looping figure that can be mistaken for an S or an 8. If “&” carries meaning in a name or slogan, test it with a few people before you commit.

Inside the TAN Daisy download

The licensed file we examined is a single Regular style, version 1.000, with 332 glyphs. Our copy contains an OTF file; the listing’s FAQ says buyers receive OTF or TTF files after unzipping. There is no italic, no second weight and no variable version. The font files credit Novia Jonatan as designer. Creative Market dates the product to 28 September 2021, and the listing does not mention mockups, SVGs or other extras.

Language coverage and the single OpenType feature

The character set covers Basic Latin plus Western European and Central and Eastern European accented letters. That is enough for English, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Polish, Czech, Romanian and many other Latin-script languages.

The only OpenType feature is kerning, a table of spacing adjustments for awkward letter pairs. You don’t need to switch it on; Word, Photoshop, Illustrator, Canva and Figma all apply it by default.

There are no ligatures, stylistic alternates or Private Use Area (PUA) glyphs. The flowers are part of the ordinary i, j and punctuation, so you get them by typing. That makes the font straightforward in Canva and Cricut Design Space, which cannot reach OpenType alternates in most fonts.

Projects that suit TAN Daisy, plus pairings

The listing suggests branding, posters and headings, and the shapes back that up. It suits short words set big: a florist or plant-shop logo, a vintage clothing tag, a café board, a children’s book cover, a record sleeve. Small sizes are where it struggles. The hairline cuts fill in below roughly headline size, and a long paragraph full of i’s becomes a field of flowers.

Set it against something quiet and geometric:

• Outfit or Jost for subheads and short body copy. Their round letters echo Daisy’s curves.
• Nunito Sans for longer text where readability comes first.

What each licence lets you do

There is no personal-only tier, so the same paid licence applies to a hobby project and to client work. The listing describes the Desktop licence’s common uses as logo design, print media, souvenirs, merchandise and images for websites or social media. Webfont is for using the font live on a website, E-pub for e-books, magazines and interactive PDFs, and App for software on iOS, Android, Windows and other systems. One seat covers one person. A TAN Daisy free download from a third-party site includes no licence of any kind. Read Creative Market’s font licence terms for the details; this is general information, not legal advice.

Getting TAN Daisy onto your computer

• Windows 10 and 11: unzip the download, right-click the OTF file and choose Install.
• macOS: double-click the OTF file and click Install in Font Book.
• Canva: upload the OTF through Brand Kit. Canva’s help page says this needs a paid plan.

Restart any app that was open so it picks up the new font.

Cormorant Garamond, Fraunces and Bodoni Moda as free stand-ins

These three free Google Fonts are all serifs, like TAN Daisy, but our comparison image shows how far apart they sit:

• Fraunces is the closest. It is a variable “soft serif” with chunky, rounded shapes, and at its heaviest weights it moves toward the same 1970s mood. It has no slits or flowers, and its counters stay open.
• Bodoni Moda shares the sharp contrast between thick and thin strokes, but it is a refined Didone for fashion and editorial work, far lighter and more formal than Daisy.
• Cormorant Garamond is a delicate, light Garamond-style serif. It is the opposite of Daisy’s weight and only makes sense if you want an elegant serif rather than a funky one.

All three are genuinely free for commercial use, which an unofficial TAN Daisy free download is not. But if the flower dots are why you want TAN Daisy, none of these will replace it.
