Typeface is a wonderful font manager for macOS that helps you pick the perfect type for your designs. A minimal interface and total focus on your fonts makes browsing your collection exciting and easy. And Typeface 2 lets you efficiently organize even the largest collections with new powerful font management features.
Requires macOS 10.11 or higher — Also available on the Mac App Store and Setapp.
Focused on fonts
Get inspired
Browse swiftly through your library without any distraction. Typeface lets you explore all your installed and imported fonts with live customization of preview text and size.
Reveal every detail
View the Unicode characters that fonts support or inspect the meta data on the info tab. You can even compare to characters of another font to see the small — and big — differences.
Typography by night
The Night theme will let you preview fonts in the dark, which is as eye-soothing as watching fluffy kittens cuddle. If you’re feeling adventurous you may rock this theme during the day as well.
Powerful organization
Tag, you’re it
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 or filter tags; spend less time searching, more designing.
Smart sidebar
Designed to get out of your way: swipe to collapse the sidebar and focus on font previews. While dragging it will automatically expand and highlight already attached tags.
Synced directories
Imported locations are kept up-to-date automatically. Just point Typeface to a directory on your Mac and newly downloaded fonts are added on refresh.
Auto activation
Hands-free activation of fonts and you won’t even notice it. Of course you can also manually activate and deactivate any font when you need to use them.
Streamlined workflow
Typeface encourages a workflow that lets you enjoy choosing type. The persistent Quick Collection allows you to quickly mark (and eliminate) potential candidates, without having to worry about losing your selection.
1. Collect candidates

2. refine selection
