Font management software

[craftytam]

Do you have a font management software that you use (and like)?

I've used Fontbase for a few years, but I'm having trouble connecting it with PSE 2024. I'm considering changing software.

What do you use? (And, what program do you scrap with?)

[nietis]

I don't. I just add those fonts as is and too lazy to manage it. What does a font management software do, Tammy?

I use fontbase too Tammy. I've previously used nexxus font or something like that & it was very similar. I use CC and don't have troubles with the basic fontbase version.

I am interested in this. I just looked in the App Store and typeface 3 is that the same one

yep!


I actually subscribe to a package that includes this as well as a lot of other productivity apps vs buying it outright but i'm probably not getting as much value as I could be from the package

With my computer being so old and not having a ton of storage, I just use https://wordmark.it/. It's online & free. You can type in a sentence or a title or whatever and it will show you what it looks like in the fonts that are loaded on your computer.
Also, I use GIMP to scrap. It's not as fancy as photoshop, but it gets the job done for me & it's also free!

I use fontbook, it was preprogrammed on my imac.

Ah yes, come to think of it, that is what I use.

Sherly, it makes fonts available without having to install them on the computer because fonts take up so much space (that, or I just have too many? lol )

I FINALLY got it to work again! Thank goodness.
I haven't had much time to sit and create, so it was really frustrating having to deal with the glitch.
All good now!

Glad you got it to work! I really should use one of these! I may try Fontbase.

I use Nexus...my computer would crash if I installed the thousands of fonts I have collected. I collect fonts like I do scrapbook kits. LOL
