Features are clearly labelled and intuitive, the detailed previews are both beautiful and functional. Makes other font management apps look dated and tired.
It’s actually made me a lot more experimental and diverse with my font choices.Typeface’s UI is clear, slick and easy on the eye. This means that you don’t end up with a menu full of activated fonts that you don’t need when you’re experimenting with a layout. Typeface makes this possible.Secondly, and this is big, is the ability to apply fonts without activating them, simply by drag and dropping the font into your layout.
I store my fonts on a cloud folder so they’re all accessible from whichever computer I’m using. Typeface doesn’t take your fonts and create its own database - it leaves your folders alone and just links to them. Two aspects of Typeface that strongly appealed to me are its non-intrusive way of handling your fonts, meaning that you can organise and structure your fonts folder however you wish - I do mine by style and by client/project. As part of my switch to M1, I decided to rethink my approach to font management.
