Typeface offers a very flexible and easy to use tagging system that lets you keep even the largest font libraries under control. Nest tags, combine tags, invert tags and filter tags; spend less time searching, more designing.

Hands-free activation of fonts and you won’t even notice it. Typeface can activate missing fonts behind the scenes right when you open design documents.

Designers Dream Font issues disappear with Typeface 3 arrives. That little fox fixes everything as well as being a graphic designers best friend for selecting the right syle.

Super support As well as the Typface app being well thought through, the support team just demonstrated they can do things very well at the front of house, too. Pleasant, knowledgeable, and quick to respond. Top marks. Peter

Fantastic font browser/viewer I'm a pretty simple font user, so I only use the font browser/viewer in this app, and it's fantastic for that. Has many other features which more advanced font users would appreciate.
