The Office font

The logo of The Office (US) is set in ITC American Typewriter, according to Fonts In Use. The typeface dates from 1974: Joel Kaden drew the lighter weights and Tony Stan the bold for ITC. The lowercase, typewriter-style title fits a show about paper, desks and office routine.

What the sources say

Fonts In Use has an entry for The Office (US) logo, dated March 2005, with ITC American Typewriter as the only typeface listed. It credits the production companies Deedle Dee Productions and 3 Arts Entertainment and tags the mark as an all-lowercase logo. The entry does not name the weight or say whether the letters were adjusted, so we only claim the typeface, not an exact style.

Regular · Latin specimen

The closest free match for the typed feel, with slab serifs and rounded ends. It is monospaced, so letters sit in equal-width slots and the word looks more mechanical than American Typewriter.

About ITC American Typewriter

ITC American Typewriter is a retail family from the International Typeface Corporation. Fonts In Use credits Joel Kaden with the two lighter weights and Tony Stan with the Bold and Outline styles. ITC officially announced it in 1974 in its magazine U&lc, and Ed Benguiat added italics in 1989. Several companies, including Bitstream and URW, later made digital versions of the family.

How to get the look

Set the words in lowercase, keep the spacing loose, and use a regular or medium weight in black on white. The look relies on soft slab serifs and round dots on letters like a and r. If you do not have American Typewriter, Courier Prime gives a similar typed feel; Special Elite works if you want a worn, inked texture.

Common questions

Is The Office font free?

Not as a download. ITC American Typewriter is a paid retail font, licensed through MyFonts. It does come installed on Macs, and Courier Prime is a free typewriter-style alternative.

What font is the Dunder Mifflin logo?

No reliable source names the Dunder Mifflin logo font on its own. Fonts In Use's entry for the Dunder Mifflin promotional website lists Impact, Arial, Helvetica and Gill Sans, but it does not say which one forms the logo.

Which weight of American Typewriter does The Office use?

The sources we trust do not say. Fonts In Use names only the family. Compare the regular and medium weights against the title yourself and pick the one that matches the stroke thickness.
