They will be removed from the current collection immediately.The Font Book on Mac is located under the Applications menu on your computer. Simply drag the fonts over that panel and drop them. A panel with a trash can icon will appear on the right side of the font preview panel. To remove fonts from a collection, select some fonts, when inside a collection, and start dragging them.

Position your mouse over a collection, and stop dragging, when you are ready to add the fonts: they will be added to the collection under your mouse immediately after you drop them. The collections, where any fonts can be added, will be highlighted with green color. To add fonts to a collection, select some fonts on the right font preview panel, and start dragging them. A new empty collection will be added and displayed immediately, ordered alphabetically. To create a collection, you need to click the New collection field, below the collections list, type a name, and press Enter. When the circle becomes green, the font is ready to use in any of your apps.Ĭollections Collections are a simple system, that allows you to organize multiple fonts for your needs: by project, by style, or by any other structure.

When you need to use some fonts in other apps, you simply need to enable them, by clicking on the grey circle near a font's name. To enable this feature, you need to use the Watched folders setting.Īfter you have added some fonts, you already can search for fonts, explore the specimen page, organize your fonts into collections, apply different styles, and much more. When you add your system fonts, as the app suggests at the first startup, they will be also simply copied into that folder, so when you install new fonts manually, they will not be displayed in FontBase.

So, if you want to add any fonts to the app, you can simply copy them to this folder, too. When you add any fonts to the app, by default, they are copied to the FontBase root folder, which is by default located at /Users/USERNAME/FontBase on Mac, and C:/Users/USERNAME/FontBase on Windows. The app will suggest you add your system fonts or drag and drop a folder with fonts, to start using them. On the first launch, FontBase will be empty and have no fonts in it.
