Acme
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog
Acme is a comic-inspired display face with rounded corners, strong weight, and a friendly bounce. It carries the look of older cartoon and newspaper display lettering, so short titles feel bright, clear, and easy to notice in busy layouts.
Designed by Juan Pablo del Peral in 2011, the regular file includes 231 Latin glyphs. The structure is simple and readable, which helps Acme work in more places than a purely novelty cartoon font. That extra clarity lets it work well on packaging and app graphics where small headlines still need personality.
It works well in comics, children's graphics, packaging, posters, app banners, and casual branding that need a cheerful voice. It is available as a free personal-use download, with separate licensing for broader commercial use.
