Paper Font: Amy Cox’s Paper-Cut Typeface and Personal-Use Resource

Amy Cox’s original Paper project describes a display typeface made entirely through paper cutting, including European and Cyrillic characters. The project was published on March 7, 2017. Cox offers personal use free and directs commercial users to contact her for a license. The publication date identifies the project account; it is not evidence that every file circulating under the generic name Paper is her resource.

Create an original invitation with one short heading, a venue and a complete date. Give the heading a generous area first, then examine its word spaces at the final printed size. A loose arrangement that works on a poster can become disconnected on a small card. Keep the address and response instructions in a separate readable text style. The cutout typography guide offers a broader construction comparison; the original Paper specimen remains the reference for Cox’s actual letterforms.

Use every accented name and punctuation mark required by the invitation in a complete proof. Do not assume that a broad character-coverage statement settles the precise glyphs in your downloaded edition. Print a draft on the intended stock and examine both light and dark backgrounds before adding further texture. Keep the original project link with your layout notes so collaborators can identify the maker. The homepage copyable decorative letters change Unicode characters; they do not supply Paper’s outlines or create a paper-cut font file.
