Early 2013 Google announced they are partnering with fonts.com by offering their complete collection of open source Google Fonts available for free for download to your desktop.

To this point Google Fonts have mostly been for use on the web, typically used by web designers to incorporate any of the nearly 500 Google Fonts in their web work (if you count italic/bold etc. there are over 1,100 fonts).

By having Google Fonts available on your desktop/laptop, graphic designers can now use any of the Google Fonts fonts in their work.

Google Fonts are managed on your desktop via the SkyFonts application from Monotype (free download for PC and Mac).
