On the hunt for pretty script typefaces that don't cost a penny? Check out Qumpellka No.12 (scroll to the bottom of the page for download options). And for more typographical pleasure, visit We Love Typography, a visual roundup of gorgeous lettering by amazing people. Search by color or keyword for extra fun.
So I went to download this gorgeous font and before I installed it I got a message... "One serious error was found. Do not install this font." (I use an iMac).
ReplyDeleteThat's weird! It worked for me a couple weeks ago on my Mac. I used it to make the graphic in this post.
ReplyDeleteYou could also try downloading it from dafont.com

I got the same message as Catty. I tried dafont.com but still got the same problem :/ That's a shame because the font looks really pretty.
ReplyDeleteSame message for me, too, which is too bad because it is a lovely font.
ReplyDeleteHi All,
ReplyDeleteI just had the same issue as all of you with Macs... so I Googled the font name and found the originating page. There's a version "for Mac" now. It's here: http://www.glukfonts.pl/font.php?font=QumpellkaNo12
Hope this helps!
Thanks, Lisa. I just changed the Font Squirrel link in the post to that one; hope that works for people. Not sure why the Font Squirrel file works for me but not others!
ReplyDeleteI love your blog so much. It's one of the most inspiring blogs ever. <3
ReplyDeleteThanks Lisa! It worked like a charm!
ReplyDeleteHave I missed something? Can't find the link?
ReplyDeleteOn the Qumpellka page, scroll down and choose a .zip file to download. If you have a Mac, choose "QumpellkaNo12 for Macintosh" or if a PC, choose the OTF or TTF version.
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! - Was going completely crazy trying to sort this -(no other font will do!) Totally works & deadline doesn't seem so scary now!!
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU SO MUCH LISA it is now 2016 and I have used your answer to overcome this problem on my Mac - very helpful phew thanks heaps
