![]() ![]() Though for the number of minor issues people poke at it, there are equally just as many people who have no issues with it. The other, which I have not confirmed, is the app seems to have a lot of pop-ups suggesting you go subscription-based. From my understanding (which is way over my head) means it's having to go through a lot more rendering to make it work efficiently. 1, it's not a native Mac app, it's based on the GitHub Electron GUI. ![]() I have narrowed it down to Rightfont, Typeface 3, Font Explorer or Fontbase.įontbase from what I have read has two issues. This seems to be the only reason they updated the software from what I can see. Suitcase 9 still works but now manually, no auto-activation is possible as the new subscription updates 'conveniently' breaks the typecore and plugin compatibility. Suitcase has been my go-to app from the very beginning up to version 9. Having upgraded my machine, by default the new system software broke the older apps. Maybe there are some decent free alternatives out there?ĭo you still use font management software, if so, which one do you prefer? I know suitcase used to be a thing people used for mac, but I am on windows. But it's old and is getting more and more buggy with newer versions of windows. I randomly bought this 'Font Expert' software many years ago, that I still use. I also keep collection of for example serifs, sans serfis and what have you that I can enable or disable and make available to the OS in seconds. I remember having a lot of fonts enabled, could be something that bogged down the OS, not so sure that is the case in 2021, but still you don't always want thousands of fonts enabled in the OS. ![]() So when I don't use them I disable them so they don't clutter everything up. I find having a font management tool handy, not just for reviewing different fonts, but for example I can disable/enable all google fonts on my system with the click of a button. ![]() Association Typographique Internationale.Handwriting – among other techniques – cannot.

But I am not sure if it would be easier to use a different font manager over ACDSee that I am currently using. I am guessing from the way Angie describes NexusFont, you can tag the same font with several categories - the same as 1001 Fonts does. I think the 1001 way makes more sense to me and seems to be more similar to my categories. I looked at the way Dafont does as well as 1001 Free Fonts. With 29+ Folders it does take a while.Ĭan you all tell me what types of categories you would use to organize fonts? Can you designate watched folders in that like you can with Font Base? I have FontBase "watching" the folders that I have organized in ACDSee but I still have to find the folder with the appropriate fonts to activate them. I have installed and uninstalled both NexusFont and FontBase a gazillion times over the years. I have 29 folders and even more subfolders. I have the uninstalled fonts separated into folders such as Billboard/Bold, Brush Script, Doodles, CK/Cute, Handwriting, Movies and Media, Typewriter. I can load them by Rebuilding Metadata and then open Photoshop. Right now, I use ACDSee Photo Manager to view fonts. My next step is to better organize the installed ones so I can find and load the ones that I need quickly. Just a "few." I forced myself to keep them to 100. I reinstalled a few of my favorites and ones that I used most often. Last week I did it! I deleted all of my fonts. ![]()
