Old Stock II is the follow up to the popular set of actions from Borges Lettering called Old Stock.

"After 4 months of banging my head against the wall I finally cracked the code to making Illustrator produce a true 2 color highlight shadow. This has never been done before. I figured it was impossible but I did not want to give up. After many different prototypes I finally figured it out. I then took it a step further and had it produce 7 different true cast shadows. Next I figured out how to make Illustrator produce an inside shadow. All of this became Old Stock II."

These high quality tools allow you to produce a wide range of vector effects. Graphic Designers and Type Designers will benefit from the ease of use. Old Stock II makes quick work of complex effects.

  • Client work and freelance projects
  • Logos and branding (non-trademarked)

The desktop license covers static images for web use. For live text on websites (using @font-face), you'll need a separate webfont license. Contact us for web licensing options.

You're buying a desktop font license — here's what that actually means for you, in plain English.
You CAN
  • Use it for any commercial project — logos, branding, packaging, print, merch, social media, you name it
  • Install on up to 2 of your own computers (like your desktop and laptop) — just not running simultaneously
  • Use it for client work and freelance projects without any extra fees
  • Export images (PNG, JPG, etc.) with the font for use on websites
  • Embed it in PDFs you share or distribute, as long as the font itself can't be extracted
  • Hand it to your printer or print bureau temporarily — they just need to delete it when the job is done
  • Keep one backup copy tucked away somewhere safe
You CANNOT
  • Use it as a live webfont on a website (via @font-face or CSS) — that needs a separate web license, just ask us
  • Bundle it inside an app, game, or software product — a different license is needed for that
  • Use it in TV, film, video, or broadcast content — reach out and we'll sort out the right license
  • Sell products where the letterforms themselves are the product — things like sticker alphabets, rubber stamps, embroidery kits, or die-cuts
  • Modify, convert, or reformat the font files in any way
  • Share, transfer, or give the font files to anyone else
  • Print more than 250,000 copies of a single piece — just contact us for a volume upgrade
This is a license, not a transfer of ownership — Borges Lettering retains the rights to the font. Need a web, app, broadcast, or high-volume license? We're happy to help.
Just drop us a message.
