Metropolis is also the name of a movie from Fritz Lang (Germany), mid to late 1920's. Probably well before the US Batman comics were created (late 1930's or early 1940's? if I am correct). So I doubt the IP laywers would be able to uphold any copyright claim about the Metropolis name. Not to mention it is an old Greek (and Latin) word as well which makes it even more difficult to patent/copyright "Metropolis" imho. For a font named Gotham that might be different.
Oth, all an IP lawyer may need to do is threaten to file a case in court to make the other party give in because they can't afford the costs of a lawsuit.
Well, Gotham...Metropolis...that was akin to waving a cape in front of any IP lawyer with any basic North American comics knowledge. There are more obscure names at hand. But I digress.
Well, I dind't expect this but... Metropolis has been taken out due to the owners of Gotham saying something about it... as explained here by Chris Simpson himself:
Hey guys,
Scrooge McDuck (Jonathan Hoefler) came and intimidated me with his lawyer. Between that and belligerent PRs (VMware, I’m looking at you), I gave up, if only for now, and made the repo private. Happy for anyone to fork it and do what they want. Maybe if it didn’t have the name Metropolis, Hoefler would be less of an a$$ about it.
Peace,
C.
It's no longer available in Font Squirrel, but I added a new download link.
Best regards!

Hi there!
I saw this post about the resources Apple shares for interface design, for Sketch, Phoroshop and Adobe X D. I downloaded the ZIP file provided by Apple and started to make the AFDESIGN version of it. There are several PSD files with pixel images, and I'm trying to make the closest possible to that, but all here is editable and with lovely vectors and shapes.
Here is the first one of the files. I'll update this Topic when I finish more of these files. Hope this be useful!
Note: You still might want to download the ZIP file to get the fonts SF Pro Display and SF Pro Text.
Best regards!
Hi Mithferion, I thought I was the only one with this "graphic bug". In the meantime I don't dare to post anything here in the forum because I have been snubbed by admins a few times.
For the admins: I know that this "graphics bug" has not yet been fixed in the new beta 1.9.1.971. But nevertheless, "before anyone asks" I have attached a screenshot of the beta version.
Hey to the folks in the thread here as well: just so you're all aware I've passed this thread on to my contacts within AMD, so people will be aware of this issue relatively quickly, hopefully. Thanks for your keen eyes on this issue, and thank you to the Serif team for providing some temporary relief. I hope we'll be able to resolve this issue soon!
No, it's not just you.
I was just about to post a "rant" today, too.
My theory is that they have been designed to "look good" on retina displays. But I can't tell because I don't have any retina displays.
Hi there!
This topic is a word of encouragement and gratitud. Since last year, I had a list somewhere around the forums, of things that people wanted to see in the Affinity Suite.

Click here to download the latest beta - This is now distributed via CDN, so downloads should be quick for everyone... hopefully!
(note: on chrome browser you will need to use right click and use "open link in new tab", as this is an http link)
Status: Customer Beta Purpose: Fixes Requirements: A valid product key (for Affinity Store purchases), or an installation of the full retail version from the Microsoft Store
As this is a beta it is considered to be not suitable for production use. This means that you should not attempt to use it for commercial purposes or for any other activity that may be adversely affected by the application failing, including the total loss of any documents. We hope you enjoy the latest build, and as always, if you've got any problems, please don't hesitate to post a new thread in this forum and we'll get back to you as soon as we can. Thanks once again for your continued feedback.
If you have a general question about the software, please head over to the Questions Forum, or if you have any suggestions, please head over to the Feature Requests forum.

Hi there!
I just wanted to share a list of Free for Commercial Use Fonts. This is a curated[*] list of some of the best freely available Fonts out there. The criteria I had in order to come up with this list:
They have to be either Free or Open Source Fonts.
They can be used in commercial projects (some restrictions may vary from Font to Font, so be sure to read first). I made my best to ensure this point, but I could be wrong and I'd be more that happy if you let me know if I made a mistake.
No attribution required.
In some cases (Serif and Sans Serif), they have to have more than two weights (at least one italic included).
Support for Spanish characters like Á, Ü, ¿¡!?, Ññ (since I speak Spanish, this was mandatory, but there are many more good Fonts that don't cover this criteria).
[*] I have basic knowledge about typography, but I have read reviews from well educated people in order to ensure quality.
Well, here it is the list. As you can see, they are grouped by classification, and a general one in that regard. Some of the Serif and Sans Serif fonts were included in "Headlines" because they had one weight or they had no italics/oblique.
[UPDATE] Added notes on some cases, like what the Font can be an alternative of.
[UPDATE] Added the number of Fonts.
[UPDATE] Adding previews of the fonts... eventhough some of them won't look as good, but it will help before clicking on a link.
[UPDATE] Where possible, I added a link to real life examples linking to Fonts In Use, for inspiration.
