Stylish Punjabi Fonts . . .

All of the 304 fonts in 49 families that you can download from this site are created by me (Paul Alan Grosse) and this is the only place that I put them. You can find older versions of them to download from other people's websites but occasionally, I update some of them or make modifications that the font files on these other sites will not have. This site is the only place that you can guarantee has the most up-to-date files. Also, when I make a new font, it can be months if not years before they appear on other sites. For example, GHP Full is one of the most popular of my fonts in film publicity, including the films themselves and yet there are plenty of Punjabi font download sites that do not have it at all, let alone the most recent version of it.

Visit the fonts home page for a complete list of font families and to find out which are the latest additions.

you can also compare font families on the font comparison page where you can choose a page that fits your screen and select any of the families, 2, 4 or 6 at a time.

Representing literally thousands of hours of font design work with the resulting fonts used in over a hundred Punjabi films and on the covers of well over a hundred books as well in as magazines, newspapers, jewellery and even as tattoos, my fonts are available for you to download from these pages and use for free, regardless of whether you want to use it for doing your homework or making a film.
