Hi, I'm creating a logo for my game, and the font I'm using is Alba, but when I downloaded it; it came with no info on how to get a license to use it commercially :-O or with any contact details, and where I downloaded it, it says its only for private use. So what should I do? Thanks

Edit: Silly me X_X I relised it did come with info :D

    If you have a Mac, open font book, search the font, click on info .
    If the option "incorporable" is "yes" you can use the font for yours job.

    It says "Free for personal use" right above the Download link. That means you cannot use it in a commercial app unless you first receive permission from the person who created it.

    Furthermore, read the section titled "Can I use a recently purchased font in an App I'm creating for mobile devices (iOS, Android, Windows)?" at http://www.fontbros.com/support/font-licensing-use#topic_11.
