Do you have to buy a license for every client?
Say you used one font for the identity of one client, then you want to use it for a publishing project for another client. Do people actually license fonts?

The clients are responsible for buying licenses, I believe.

- Are you giving them the font files to use as part of the identity?monospaced

Fonts are like software; toss them all on a flash drive along with Adobe Creative Suite and your working files so that your client can no longer hire you.
Am I right?

Like mono said asked above, if you give them a copy of the font then they need to license it. They don't need to license it if you are only providing them with finished art (no font files included)
If you own the font you can use it to design for as many clients as you want -- you just can't give them the font files.
