lino-set Font

Lino-set is a free eroded display font built from thick, uneven strokes and blunt, softly rounded forms. The chipped edges look hand-cut and heavily worn.

Its battered lettering can push a punk concert poster toward photocopied grit, yet the same informal shapes also suit small-batch food packaging with a rough craft angle. Merchandise and game graphics are other convincing settings, especially for horror, underground music, and unruly comedy. The broken silhouettes can echo torn-paper collage, stamped marks, or distressed illustrations, letting the lettering become part of the artwork rather than a clean label.
